Four cups of mini marchmallows

Grease your hands with a little butter and firmly press one quarter cup of the mixture into each egg half. Then take it out of the mold.  Put them on wax papar and allow them to slightly cool.  Put five or six M&M’s in one half of every plastic egg. Press the two egg halves together until they stick.
