On April Fools' Day, trick your family with a tiny breakfast that's really a cleverly disguised dessert.
- Ingredients

- FOR THE EGGS:
- 3 tablespoons white chocolate chips
- 12 yellow M&MS
- FOR THE FAKIN':
- 1 square caramel
- 1 Tootsie Roll Midgee
- Instructions

For the eggs: Melt the white chocolate chips according to the package directions. Transfer the melted chocolate to a ziplock bag and snip off a corner.
-
Squeeze nickel-size portions of the chocolate onto a sheet of waxed paper, then gently press a yellow M&M, letter side down, into the center of each. Let the candies cool. Makes 12 eggs.
-
For the fakin': Remove the wrapping from a square caramel and a Tootsie Roll Midgee. Microwave the candies for 4 seconds to make them soft. Use your thumb and forefinger to slightly flatten each candy piece, then press them together. -
Halve the candy, then stack and press the pieces into alternating layers. -
Slice a 1/4-inch-wide piece from the stack. Pinch and stretch the piece lengthwise into a flat bacon strip, then cut it in half. Add ripples to each half by gently bending the edges. Makes 3 strips (6 pieces).
