Hi guys!! I got a super cute recipe to share with you today!  These Cookie Dough Eggs are a hit around Easter and you can make them yourself in no time!

Now everyone loves the Reeses Easter Eggs and when I was little we would get peanut butter cream filled chocolate eggs with our names on them in chocolate and we loved them.  So I love making little egg shaped treats for Easter and these Cookie Dough Eggs are to die for!

This no bake recipe is the perfect treat for Easter. 

The filling is a luscious edible cookie dough coated with colorful chocolate with sprinkles.  These are festive, gorgeous and delicious!  I love edible cookie dough, since it has no raw eggs you can eat as much as you want!  Everyone knows the best part of making chocolate chip cookies is the dough so with this edible chocolate chip cookie dough you can eat as much as you want.

These Cookie Dough Truffles are also no bake! Perfect for whipping up ahead of time for Easter.

I love this recipe because you can make the eggs as big as you like or as small as like, if you want to make little poppable eggs.

This is a very very easy recipe!  I promise you can make these!! You will be amazed how easy they are.

They are also so fun to decorate.  We all love dyeing Easter eggs but these ones you get to decorate with chocolate and sprinkles, yes please!!

This cookie dough truffles recipe is so easy. Just mix together a few ingredients, form the dough into eggs, freeze, dip into chocolate and decorate!! It is literally that simple.  You will be making these Cookie Dough Eggs faster than the Easter Bunny!

Now the dipping process is so quick you have to put the sprinkles on immediately after you dip one.  I like to dip them in the colored chocolate then drizzle with white chocolate and add the sprinkles to that. 

These are delicious and make great gifts and the recipe makes about a dozen chocolate chip cookie dough truffles depending on how big you make yours so that’s a lot of decorating!

These are such a great sweet treat for the holiday.  The edible cookie dough tastes incredible.  We all know how delicious cookie dough is, but were not really supposed to eat it so thankfully this is a safe edible cookie dough recipe that you can eat till your heart is content.  

These easter egg cookie dough truffles will look so pretty on your Easter dessert table, or in Easter baskets.  They also make a perfect gift. 

So this Easter whip up a batch or two of these Easter Cookie Dough Truffles, your whole family will love them!

Do I chill these in the fridge or freezer?

I chill them in the freezer because that makes it easier when dipping but you can also chill them in the fridge.  Either way just make sure they stay cold while you are dipping the others.

Can I melt chocolate chips for dipping?

I have never had too much luck melting chocolate chips for dipping.  You have to add a shortening or coconut oil to get it to a good dipping consistency.  I always just buy the almond bark or candy melts. You can find these in the baking or party aisle of your grocery store.  I have had great luck finding them at Walmart but craft stores carry them too!

Is almond bark the same as white chocolate?

It is!  And I love working with it, it melts so easily and is perfect for dipping.  I do not recommend using white chocolate chips for this at all, it almost never melts correctly and can make the dipping process very difficult. 

Can I make these easter egg truffles ahead of time?

Sure!! I would say you could make these 3 days in advance, maybe longer if you refrigerate them.

Do these cookie dough egg truffles need refrigeration?

Depending on how long they will be around for.  If you make them the night before and they will be eaten the next day you can leave them unrefrigerated.  After that I would keep the leftover in the fridge just because there is butter in the filling.

Can I roll these out and cut egg shapes out?

You can, the shape of an egg is pretty easy to hand mold and I like a thicker egg.  Hand shaping them also prevents the cream filling from getting to warm by being rolled out and then rerolled.

INGREDIENTS

• Butter-  You can use salted or unsalted butter, that is really up to your taste preference.  Make sure it is softened.
• Brown sugar- This gives the edible dough a rich flavor. 
• Vanilla extract-  You can’t have cookie dough without vanilla flavor! 
• Flour-  There is some discrepancy about whether it is safe to eat raw flour or not.  You can eat the uncooked flour as is if you prefer or you can warm it up in the microwave to be safe. 
• Sweetened condensed milk-  This adds sweetness and makes those truffles just melt in your mouth. 
• Miniature chocolate chips-  Since these are small eggs I like to use the mini chocolate chips so you can get more chocolate chips per bite. I like to use the mini semisweet chocolate chips but you can use milk chocolate or white chocolate chips. 
• Colored candy melts-  I like to use yellow, pink, blue and white candy melts for this recipe. You also do not have to use different colors and can go with just one color.
• Easter sprinkles-  I just use whatever cute Easter sprinkles I find at the store but you could also omit the sprinkles all altogether (some people don’t like biting into them).
