Candy Easter Eggs
Every Easter since I can remember, I have helped my Mom make candy Easter eggs. Along with the traditional peanut butter eggs, we also made cream cheese, cherry, cherry walnut, and coconut eggs. The coconut eggs are my favorite, especially with a handful of chopped cherries add to them. I usually got to mix everything together, while she added the ingredients and dipped the eggs in chocolate. This was the first year I made the eggs by myself, which I found out wasn’t quite as fun as making them with my mom, but I still managed to successfully make 22 dozen eggs. It’s a lot of work, but one taste of these homemade eggs reminded me of why my mom always went though the effort. They are delicious, rich, and creamy – better than any candy egg bought at the store. And for those of you wondering about the difference between the peanut butter eggs, it’s simply this. The original recipe peanut butter eggs are a lot sweeter and have a more “melt in your mouth” texture. The updated recipe peanut butter eggs, which includes cream cheese, have a richer taste and are a bit more creamy. Both are excellent, and it is just personal preference which is better.
