What You’ll Need:

• Your favorite fudge recipe (chocolate, peanut butter, vanilla – you name it!)
• Easter egg molds (silicone molds work best for easy removal)
• Food coloring (optional, for that extra festive touch)
• Sprinkles, edible glitter, or any other decorations to bring your fudge eggs to life

Step 1: Prepare Your Fudge

Start by whipping up a batch of your chosen fudge recipe. Whether it’s a family heirloom recipe or a quick mix from the back of a marshmallow fluff jar, the key is to follow the instructions carefully. If you’re feeling adventurous, why not experiment with adding a drop or two of food coloring for pastel-hued fudge eggs?

Step 2: Fill Your Molds

Once your fudge mixture is ready and still warm (but cool enough to handle), carefully spoon it into your Easter egg molds. Be sure to press the fudge into each crevice for a perfect egg shape. If you encounter any bubbles, gently tap the mold on the counter to settle the mixture.

Step 3: Chill and Set

Patience is a virtue, especially in fudge-making! Pop the filled molds into the refrigerator and let them chill until completely set. This could take a few hours, so feel free to sneak in a little “me time” or catch up on your favorite show.

Step 4: Unmold and Decorate

Once set, gently ease your fudge eggs out of the molds. If they’re stubborn, a quick dip in warm water can help loosen them. Now comes the fun part – decorating! Let your imagination run wild with sprinkles, edible glitter, or even a drizzle of contrasting chocolate.

Step 5: Share and Enjoy!

Arrange your Easter egg fudge on a platter, nestle them into Easter baskets, or wrap them up as sweet gifts. These treats are sure to bring smiles to your Easter celebrations.

And there you have it, folks – a step-by-step guide to making Easter egg fudge that’s as fun to make as it is to eat. Remember, the best part about homemade treats is the love and creativity that goes into them. So don’t stress about perfection; it’s all about the joy of creating and sharing.

Happy Easter, and happy fudging!
