Organic Vegan Chocolate Creme Eggs
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Setting Time: 20 minutes (10 minutes for the chocolate shell + 10 minutes after filling)
Total Time: 40 minutes
Servings: Makes approximately 6 crème eggs (depending on mold size)
Ingredients
For the Chocolate Shell:
-
200g Cacao Butter
-
1 tbsp Coconut Oil
-
3 tbsp Maple Syrup
-
1 tspn Vanilla Extract
For the White Crème Filling:
-
240g Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk
-
3 tbsp Icing Sugar
-
1 tspn Vanilla Extract
-
Pinch of Sea Salt
-
¼ tspn Planet Organic Turmeric
Instructions:
Step 1: Make the Chocolate Shell
-
Fill a small saucepan with about 5cm of water and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to a simmer.
-
Place cacao butter and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl and set it over the saucepan (without touching the water). Allow it to melt completely.
-
Remove from heat and transfer to a jug for easy pouring.
-
Whisk in maple syrup and vanilla extract.
-
Add cacao powder and whisk until smooth and glossy.
Step 2: Coat the Molds
-
Place an egg mold (with 2.5" cavities) on a tray lined with parchment paper.
-
Pour about 1 tbsp of melted chocolate into each mold cavity. Use a pastry brush to evenly coat the sides.
-
Turn the mold upside-down over the parchment-lined tray to allow excess chocolate to drip off. Scrape the top with a palette knife for a smooth edge.
-
Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.
Step 3: Make the Crème Fillings
-
In a bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed coconut milk, powdered sugar, vanilla extract,and sea salt until smooth.
-
In a small separate bowl, mix 4 tbsp of the white filling with turmeric to create the yellow "yolk."
Step 4: Fill the Chocolate Eggs
-
Transfer both fillings to piping bags (or use a spoon).
-
Pipe a layer of white crème into each chocolate mold.
-
Pipe a small amount of the yellow turmeric "yolk" into the center.
-
Top with more white crème, leaving space for the final chocolate layer.
Step 5: Seal & Set
-
Spoon remaining melted chocolate over the filled molds to seal the eggs.
-
Place back in the freezer for another 10 minutes until fully set.
-
Once firm, gently remove the eggs from the molds.
Step 6: Optional Decoration
-
Drizzle with extra melted chocolate and sprinkle with flaky sea salt for an elegant finish!
