Is Eris the largest Kuiper Belt object?
No. Eris is not a Kuiper Belt object, but is instead part of the scattered disk, beyond the Kuiper Belt. Eris is slightly smaller than Pluto, though by an insignificant amount but has a greater mass, meaning it is denser.

Is Pluto the largest of the Kuiper Belt Objects?
Well, you see, my friend, Pluto isn't the largest object in the Kuiper Belt. That title actually goes to another Kuiper Belt Object called Eris.

Just like each one of us, each cosmic object has its own special place and significance in the universe.

What two dwarf planets are in the Kuiper Belt?
The two that have been identified and named are Eris and Sedna, although Pluto arguably belongs in the "Kuiper belt" category as well. However, there are certainly hundreds, more likely millions of similar objects that are still just a little too far away to be detected by our terrestrial telescopes. Edit: I think the correct answer is : Haumea and Makemake. Also I would definitely say Pluto is in the Kuiper Belt. So that's three Dwarf Planets in the Kuiper Belt. Eris is a "Scattered Disc Object", but some astronomers consider it as a Kuiper Belt Object too. Sedna, as far as I know, has not yet been classified as a Dwarf Planet.
