Do you have one thing that you remember getting in your Easter basket every year? Every year my grandparents would get us these big peanut butter Easter eggs with our names on them. I looked forward to those eggs every year.
The other thing I remember is the 2 foot solid chocolate Easter bunny that we would get. If you are laughing because there is no such thing, go right ahead. My husband chuckles every time I talk about it. He says my bunny gets bigger every time I talk about it.
But seriously, that thing was huge. It was at least 2 feet tall! I swear we were still gnawing on it in July!!
Years ago I started making our kids these Decorated Peanut Butter Eggs with their names on them. It’s their favorite thing I put in their Easter baskets.
It is such a fun tradition that I am looking forward to continuing it until they are out of college. And then one day, I’ll make them for the grandkids.
Oh, my! Did I seriously just type that? Nothing like making yourself feel old.
I have been experimenting with different homemade candy eggs each year too. These Biscoff Cream Eggs were such a hit, that I had to make another version.
This year I pulled out the jar of Nutella. I had a feeling these were going to be absolutely delicious dipped in white chocolate.
Turns out I was right! You will want to make a batch of these chocolate eggs for Easter.
How to make Nutella Cream Eggs:
- Beat softened butter and Nutella until creamy. Add marshmallow cream and vanilla extract and beat again. (full recipe at bottom of post)
- Slowly beat in the powdered sugar until a soft dough forms.
- Divide the mixture into 12 even balls. Use your hands to press each ball into an egg shape.
- Place the eggs on a parchment lined tray and freeze for 20-30 minutes.
- Dip each egg in melted white chocolate and place on another tray to set.
- Once the chocolate is set up, dip the ends of each egg in the remaining white chocolate and add pink sugar right away.
- Spoon the remaining white chocolate into a plastic bag and cut one corner off. Drizzle lines across the center of each egg and add other sprinkles.
One word of warning! Do not make these Nutella eggs too early. Otherwise, everyone will devour them and you will not have any to put in Easter baskets.
These homemade chocolate Easter eggs look so cute when they are bagged and tied with a cute little ribbon and tag made from this eyelet circle punch. These die cuts make the perfect little tag for gifting little food items like this.
A little handmade tag and some cellophane bags would be a great way to share these fun no bake Easter treats with friends and family.

Homemade Nutella Cream Eggs
These Nutella Cream Eggs are easy to make and taste amazing. A creamy chocolate filling dipped in white chocolate with colorful sprinkles on top is a fun treat to make for Easter baskets.
Ingredients
- 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 1/4 cup marshmallow cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 10 ounce bag white melts
- colored sprinkles or nonparils
- pink sanding sugar
Instructions
- Beat the butter and Nutella until creamy. Add the marshmallow cream and extract and beat again.
- Slowly add the powdered sugar until a soft dough forms.
- Divide the mixture into 12 even balls. Shape the balls using your hands to flatten them into an egg shape. Place on a wax paper lined baking sheet. Freeze for 20-30 minutes.
- Melt the chocolate according to the package directions. Use a fork to hold each frozen egg in the chocolate.
- Spoon the chocolate over the egg with a spoon. Tap the fork gently on the side of the bowl. Slide onto the wax paper lined tray. Let set.
- Dip the ends of each egg in the remaining chocolate. Sprinkle with the sanding sugar over another bowl.
- Reheat the white chocolate, if needed, and spoon it into a plastic baggie. Cut one tip off.

Notes
*If your melting chocolate is too thick to dip, you can also add a little bit of shortening to thin it out.

Those are the prettiest eggs I have ever seen!
Thanks Marti!
This whole page just blows my mind. I am pinning, stumbling, tweeting, anything I can think of. Thanks for all the great ideas.
Oh, My!!!!! I can tell you that these eggs are soooooooo decadent…..soooooo absolutely adorable, and i just love the packageing. Did I mention that they taste like a treat right from the best Easter bunny baker EVER!!
Haha, thanks Maureen! 🙂
I’m pretty sure that warning applies to all your dessert recipes! But I have to agree, this marshmallow cream, Nutella, and white chocolate combo is amazing!
I seriously can’t believe you just wrote about grandkids! I’m hoping that is far far in the future. And those chocolate bunnies were about 2 feet tall. I will attest to it. 🙂
So cute and nutella eggs is genius!! Love this idea!
Thanks Tieghan! 🙂
These are GORGEOUS!!!
I saw a 2-foot-tall giant chocolate Easter bunny at Walmart last year and took a picture — they DO exist! I was really, really tempted to buy it until I realized it was milk chocolate. I much prefer dark! Although I love Nutella almost as much as dark chocolate, so I’d be super excited to find one of your eggs in my Easter basket. They look so cute and festive!
Thanks Amy! 😉
Wow these eggs are gorgeous!! I really like you’re photos in this post. I wish I received a 2ft bunny- we always received big easter eggs from England full of english chocolate!! Love traditions- especially when they involve food 😉
These look pretty darn fantastic. I insist on a solid chocolate bunny. Not of this hallow stuff. Although I must say if I got a 2 ft bunny I might make an exception to the whole solid rule.
Haha, yes a 2 foot solid chocolate bunny is a lot of chocolate! 🙂
I love these, they are so beautiful.. the tags are super cute too! Have a blessed Sunday xoxo
These eggs are absolutely adorable! And Who doesn’t liove Nutella? Got them pinned and can’t wait to try them! Happy Easter!
Thanks Kyra! 🙂
These are just way too cute, Jocelyn! I gotta make these this year – yum! Pinned.
I am a nutella addict so is it bad if I make this only for myself?? They look delicious!
No way! Definitely make them for yourself! 🙂 I would! Thanks Kelly!
I always loved the giant hollow bunny I would get in my Easter basket, but I would freak out to get a nutella cream egg! I wish I was young enough to get an easter basket now lol. 😀
I want these in my basket!! They’re gorgeous!
Thanks Dorothy!
These look awesome! And the Biscoff eggs…sharing both 🙂
Thanks Sarah!
My goodness! These are adorable and I bet completely delicious!
Thanks Chels! 🙂
So yummy! Thank you so much for linking up with us… Featuring you this Friday!
Hi
I’m in Australia
Do u know if there is anywhere I can find a Aussie version of this recipe plz
Hi, Jacinta. I’m not sure what you mean by an Aussie version? Do you mean measurements or ingredients?
Hello I love your eggs. I wonder if I can freeze them ahead and coat them later. What do you think?
Yes, you can totally freeze these and then dip them later. Just remember that when dipping frozen eggs in warm chocolate, they will set up very quickly. I hope you enjoy them.
What is marshmallow cream
Marshmallow cream or fluff is a spread similar in taste (not texture) to marshmallows. You can find it in most grocery stores by the peanut butter or in the baking aisle.
I just made these! So yummy! How long can I store the mixture for in an air-tight container?
I am so glad you enjoyed the recipe. I think the mixture would be fine in an air tight container in the fridge for up to a week. Although, these have never lasted that long in our house. LOL!
How long would the cream center stay fresh? Would like to make ahead of time. And how should I store.
Thanks
They should keep for up to a week, as long as you keep them in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator. I hope you enjoy the recipe.
