Strawberry Shortcake Easter Egg Bombs (Printable)

Chocolate egg shells stuffed with macerated strawberries, whipped cream and crushed shortcake biscuits—perfect for spring gatherings.

# What You'll Need:

→ Chocolate Egg Shells

01 - 8.8 oz white chocolate or milk chocolate, chopped

→ Strawberry Shortcake Filling

02 - 7 oz fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
03 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
04 - 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
05 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - 3.5 oz shortcake biscuits, crushed

→ Decorations (optional)

08 - Sprinkles, edible glitter, or colored icing

# How-To Steps:

01 - Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Spoon melted chocolate into Easter egg silicone molds, rotating to coat sides evenly. Refrigerate molds for 10 minutes to set. Apply a second chocolate layer for durability. Chill until fully hardened, approximately 15 minutes.
02 - In a small bowl, combine diced strawberries and granulated sugar. Allow to rest for 10 minutes, letting juices release and flavors intensify.
03 - In a mixing bowl, beat cold heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract using an electric mixer, whipping until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in crushed shortcake biscuits and macerated strawberries until evenly incorporated.
04 - Carefully unmold chocolate egg halves. Fill one half with strawberry shortcake mixture. Place the matching half on top and gently press to seal. Use a touch of melted chocolate to adhere halves if necessary.
05 - Optionally, drizzle filled eggs with additional melted chocolate, add sprinkles, edible glitter, or colored icing as desired. Refrigerate assembled eggs until ready to serve.
