I made these to go in my Easter baskets to bring to my aunt's house next week. They turned out so cute. They really dress up the basket and I am sure they will love them as much as I do. I used the little Cadbury hard coated eggs to fill the basket, but you could also use speckled or regular jelly beans. I may make up another batch this week, depending on how much more room I have in the basket when I get ready to fill it.

Just made these for a test before Easter and they turned out great although I needed to chill them slightly before making the indent, I'm going to make more soon, thanks Dreamer_in_Ontario!
