Strawberry Shortcake Easter Egg Bombs (Printable)

Chocolate egg shells with macerated strawberries, whipped cream and crushed biscuits—festive spring treats.

# What You Need:

→ Chocolate Egg Shells

01 - 8.8 ounces white or milk chocolate, chopped

→ Strawberry Shortcake Filling

02 - 7 ounces fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
03 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
04 - 6.8 fluid ounces heavy whipping cream, cold
05 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - 3.5 ounces shortcake biscuits, crushed

→ Decorations

08 - Sprinkles, edible glitter, or colored icing (optional)

# Steps:

01 - Melt the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over gently simmering water using the double boiler method, stirring until fully smooth. Spoon the melted chocolate into Easter egg silicone molds, swirling to coat the interiors evenly. Refrigerate molds for 10 minutes to partially set the chocolate. Apply a second layer for added thickness, then chill until completely set, approximately 15 minutes.
02 - Combine diced strawberries and granulated sugar in a small bowl. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes, enabling the juices to draw out and create a light syrup.
03 - Using a medium mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream together with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks develop. Gently fold in the crushed shortcake biscuits and the macerated strawberries, ensuring the filling is evenly blended while maintaining volume.
04 - Carefully unmold the set chocolate egg halves. Fill one side of each chocolate egg with the prepared strawberry shortcake mixture. Press the corresponding egg half on top to enclose the filling, sealing with a small amount of melted chocolate if necessary.
05 - Enhance the finished eggs with a drizzle of melted chocolate, sprinkles, edible glitter, or colored icing as desired. Chill assembled bombs until ready to serve.
