Cheesecake Filled Chocolate Easter Eggs
Ingredients
Making these decadent Easter treats is easier than you think. You'll need the following ingredients:
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 24 ounces chocolate candy coating
- Assorted sprinkles and candy decorations
Instructions
To make these treats, you'll need to prepare the cheesecake filling first. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the flour, vanilla extract, salt, and eggs, and mix until combined. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and fill each cup with 2 tablespoons of cheesecake filling.
Bake the cheesecake filling for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Once cooled, use a melon baller to scoop out 24 small balls of cheesecake and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 30 minutes to let the cheesecake balls harden.
While the cheesecake balls are in the freezer, melt the chocolate candy coating in the microwave according to the package instructions. Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted chocolate and use a spoon to cover it completely. Place the chocolate covered cheesecake balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, add some sprinkles or other candy decorations.
Return the cheesecake-filled chocolate Easter eggs to the freezer for 15 minutes to let the chocolate harden. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
