Method

1. Mix all the ingredients except the MiiRO ice cream in a food processor (or a high speed blender) until a dough starts to form. The dough might be a little sticky but smooth enough to be shaped.
2. Divide the dough in about 6-8 balls. Roll in your hands to form little eggs. Place in freezer while you prepare the chocolate sauce.
3. Take the MiiRO ice cream and remove the top chocolate shell using a sharp knife. Let the ice cream sit at room temperature to allow the ice cream to soften.
4. Melt the removed chocolate shell piece in a double boiler.
5. Remove the eggs from freezer and drizzle with the chocolate sauce.
6. Place the eggs in the ice cream boat and serve.
