Fruit and Nut, or Coconut Easter Eggs

I'm looking for a recipe for large fruit and nut or coconut Easter eggs.

When I was a child, we used to get homemade giant coconut cream, vanilla cream, or fruit and nut cream chocolate dipped eggs almost every year from ladies in the area who made them.


They were about the size of a very large avocado or so... We would slice a piece off at a time and it would keep for weeks (if Mom kept it hidden!!)


I am trying to find the recipe for these. If any of you know what I'm talking about and have the recipe, would you please share it with me?

...for old times sake!
