Add 1/2 container frosting to cake mix, and using your hands mix until dough forms.

Shape dough into eggs, approximately 2.5" in length.  Place on tray lined with wax paper and chill in refrigerator while you melt white chocolate.

In large microwave safe bowl, heat chocolate 90% of the white chocolate chips on high in 45 second intervals, stirring after each interval.  Continue to heat until chocolate easily stirs smooth. Add remaining chips, stir until smooth.  This will keep chocolate perfect temperature for dipping.
