One of my dear friends, who lives in our building and frequents DeLaurenti Specialty Food & Wine even more than I do, turned me onto these gorgeous egg-shaped chocolates that are sold right near the cash register in the store’s pizza/espresso bar just off First Avenue.

They reminded me of a cross between dark-chocolate and vanilla-cream Easter eggs (my childhood favorite) and really good Eskimo Pies (because of the dark chocolate). This is the perfect late-night chocolate indulgence.
