A sweet treat with a hidden chocolate filling

Knead the flour, butter, sugar, egg, and almonds into a smooth dough and let it rest in the refrigerator for half an hour. Form the dough into walnut-sized balls, flatten slightly, fill each with a halved chocolate bonbon, and seal. Shape the dough balls into small eggs and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Continue until all the dough is used up. This will yield approximately 15 small eggs, depending on how large you make them. Bake the eggs in a preheated oven at 175–180°C (top/bottom heat) for approximately 25 minutes, depending on the oven. Mix the powdered sugar with the lemon juice, adding the lemon juice very carefully; the glaze should be thick. After baking, spread a thin layer of icing over the eggs and decorate as desired. During baking, it is inevitable that the egg shape will expand slightly, but this is not a problem at all.
