Directions

- Add honey and stir well. Let cool before using.
Prepare the base mixture
- Puree the hard-boiled eggs and banana together until smooth.
- Divide the mixture into two portions.
- Create the “chocolate” layer:

- Add a layer of cranberry jam.
- Top with the “chocolate” mixture, then use a spoon to lightly swirl the layers to create a marbled effect.
