Dark Chocolate Coconut Eggs

This no-bake recipe will be the perfect addition to your Easter or Spring spread! Holy sweet goodness…these dark chocolate covered coconut cream eggs are simply sinful and absolutely delicious!

Ingredients:

• 8 oz. Softened Cream Cheese
• 1 Tablespoon Softened Butter
• 1 Cup Shredded Coconut
• 4 Cups Powdered Sugar
• 2 Cups Dark Chocolate Chips
• 1 Tablespoon Butter
• Sprinkles (optional)

Directions:

With a hand mixer, cream together 1 package (8 oz) of softened cream cheese and 1 tablespoon of softened butter.

By hand, add 1 cup of coconut and 4 cups of powdered sugar and carefully mix thoroughly.

Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes so they’re easier to mold.

Mold your mixture into egg shapes.

***NOTE – This was SUPER messy, but fun. I only got 11 eggs out of my recipe because a couple of them got a little large.

Freeze the eggs for at least 2 hours.

In the microwave, melt the 2 cups dark chocolate chips with a tablespoon of butter.

Dunk your frozen eggs into the melted chocolate – NOTE – this part gets messy!

I made a mix of some with Sprinkles and some without to make everyone in my family happy!

I just had to test one out for quality control, of course. Luckily, it passed.

Notes:

• I added the powdered sugar in a little at a time because it can get really messy if you put too much in one time.
• You could substitute milk chocolate or white chocolate to customize it to your preferences!

We hope you and your family have a Happy Easter, and don’t forget to make these EGGS-tra special treats for your bunny crew!
