Clean, then coat inside of plastic eggs with cooking spray. Set aside.

Place about 6 M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies in one half of each egg. Gently press two halves of each egg together until they stick. Cool completely.

Decorate with frosting and additional M&M'S® Brand Chocolate Candies (if desired). Best if served the same day.
