Mix sugar, butter, nuts, cherries, pineapple, and coconut. Add salt.
Add milk to stick together, but not runny. Shape and allow to dry.
Melt chocolate chips in double boiler. You can add shaved paraffin to
chocolate chips to make chocolate shiny. Dip shaped egg into melted
chocolate and set out to dry. (Tupperware pastry sheet very helpful
here.) When chocolate is set, eggs can then be personalized and
decorated with icing.

Note: Large bowl necessary for easy mixing.
