  Eggs & Bacon Candy
by Amanda Formaro

Make this fun treat while on your next camping trip or any old time. It's cute, it's tasty and the kids will love it! This is a fun project for 4H, Scouts or just for a lazy summer day.

What You Need

fruit leather candy
white chocolate for melting
yellow M&Ms
scissors


If you make this project we'd love to see it! Just send your photos and comments to the editor and it may get published on this page!

What you do

Use scissors to cut a piece of fruit leather in to strips.


Lay the strips in a criss cross shape onto a plate.

Melt white chocolate over the campfire in a skillet with a parent's help, or in a microwave.

Drop melted white chocolate on top and in the center of the criss crossed fruit leather, leaving some of the fruit leather exposed.

White melted chocolate is still hot, place two yellow M&Ms on to the chocolate for the egg yolks.

Let cool completely before removing from the plate to eat.

Notes:
  • If you have wax paper available, create your edible crafts on that instead of directly on the plate.

  • Instead of fruit leather you can substitute with pretzel sticks.
