Is this an Easter Egg or is it a cheesecake? Or is it just bloody delicious?

It didn’t take me more than 5 seconds to decide to make these No Bake Cheesecake Easter Eggs when I saw them on Paula Joye’s website, Lifestyled here. 5 seconds and I was already thinking who I could serve them too, what I would serve them on etc. I spent far too much time worrying that they wouldn’t look like they did in Paula’s pics because my food seldom looks like the recipe book image.

But in the end I decided I’d go ahead – what was the worst that could happen? If they looked bad I just wouldn’t mention them to you 😉

But imagine my surprise when they were as easy as she promised and they looked great (other than the fact that I made the yolk too runny).  I only made one change to the recipe on Lifestyled which I will outline as we go. (For ease of shopping I have bolded the ingredients you need.)

First: Get your husband to chop the tops off some hollow chocolate Easter Eggs. This was actually the hardest part which is why I outsourced it. Mr Pencil promised that if the chocolate is cold and you use a serrated knife it’s really easy.

After you’ve prepped the eggs stick them in the fridge to cool.

Then mix the following ingredients together (I doubled these quantities as I was making eggs for 18 people)

Easy as.

The original recipe suggested you make the yolk out of some combination of passionfruit pulp, apricot jam and butter. I  decided to just go for icing. So I mixed about a cup and a half of icing sugar with 1tbs of butter and an egg white (best icing recipe ever) with a few tiny drops of red and quite a few drops of yellow food colouring to resemble yolk colour and then I piped it onto the egg whites. My icing was a bit runny but it was okay

Done. And Proud
