Vegan Cadbury Creme Eggs Recipe || Gretchen's Vegan Bakery

coconut cream

🥗Healthier: silken tofu

💰Cheaper: coconut milk

Silken tofu reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

dark chocolate

🥗Healthier: dark chocolate chips

💰Cheaper: generic dark chocolate

Generic dark chocolate can lower costs without sacrificing flavor.

powdered sugar

🥗Healthier: coconut sugar

💰Cheaper: granulated sugar

Granulated sugar is often less expensive and works well in this context.

vanilla extract

🥗Healthier: vanilla bean paste

💰Cheaper: vanilla essence

Vanilla essence is a more affordable alternative.

In a mixing bowl, combine vegan butter, corn syrup, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth.

Gradually add confectioner sugar, a spoonful at a time, whipping until fully incorporated and fluffy.

Add vanilla extract to the mixture.

Take out about a quarter cup of the mixture to color yellow for the centers, leaving the rest white.

Fill the chocolate mold with tempered chocolate or candy melts, filling the cavities to the top.

Flip the mold over to let excess chocolate drip out and scrape off the excess with a spatula for clean edges.

Once the chocolate has set, fill the half egg shells with a small piece of the white cream filling, being careful not to overfill.

Add a small piece of the yellow cream filling into half of the eggs.

Freeze the filled halves for about 5 minutes.

Stick the halves together by running one half over a warm saute pan to remelt some chocolate for adhesion.

Drizzle with white chocolate and sprinkle with Easter nonpareils for decoration.
