Nothing like chocolate candy to celebrate Easter! This year, this beautiful egg-shaped cookie, deliciously decorated with lemon curd, will match: the sweetness of the chocolate and the hint of acidity of the lemon go perfectly together! This recipe is really very easy and doesn’t require you to be a great pastry chef. Anyone can do it. You can even make it in advance, it keeps well for 2 to 3 days (more time is needed than ingesting…).
