Jacques Torres's Chocolate Egg
This morning I started my day off right with a milk chocolate Easter egg from Jacques Torres. Do I normally eat breakfast? Nope. Do I celebrate Easter? Double nope. Am I using Easter as an excuse to eat oversized chocolate sculptures of unhatched chickens? Oh yeah.
Rattling from within the white chocolate-streaked egg told me there was a surprise inside. Carefully prying the egg open with a knife revealed five baby eggs made of milk, white and dark chocolate. That's one fertile egg. Full of...delicious babies. The chocolate wasn't the stuff of the heavens, but the balance of sweetness and milkiness made the smooth, mild chocolate dangerously easy to eat without feeling the unpleasant effects of a chocolate coma or a sugar-clogged throat. Go get your own egg at Jacques Torres before Easter hits!
