Can I Make Cadbury Creme Eggs VEGAN?! This might taste like an exact dupe...

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.

Melt dairy-free chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring every 30 seconds until fully melted.

Prepare egg molds by cutting a silicone sheet in half or using any egg-shaped molds available.

In a stand mixer, combine vegetable shortening and brown rice syrup, creaming them together.

Slowly add powdered sugar to the mixture, spoonfuls at a time, mixing well.

Halfway through adding powdered sugar, add vanilla extract and continue mixing until combined.

Take out about a third of the mixture and place it in a separate bowl to color with turmeric for the yolk.

Mix until the turmeric is fully incorporated, adjusting color with more turmeric if necessary.

Use a pastry brush to paint melted chocolate into the egg molds, ensuring even coverage without being too thick or thin.

Place the molds in the freezer to set the chocolate.

Form yolks from the turmeric mixture, making them larger than the surrounding white filling for visual appeal.

Roll the yolks in the white mixture to cover them completely, shaping them into disks.

Place the formed eggs on parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and freeze for about 10-15 minutes to firm up.

Check the chocolate molds for any missed spots before assembling the eggs.
