Using a double boiler put hot water ( do not boil ) in the bottom pan just to where the top pan meet’s
Turn the heat on low & keep it on unless it gets too hot put the top pot on top of the bottom pan & put about ½ or a little less of the disks in the pan & keep stirring until melted completely
Put one egg in at a time & spoon the chocolate over the egg, using a fork, slip it under the egg & tap the fork on the edge of the pot to shake off excessive chocolate

After they are cooled you can put them into a plastic container with wax paper between the layers.
