About Cadbury Creme Egg Dip

Cadbury Creme Egg Dip! If you're a fan of Cadbury Creme Eggs then you'll love this dip! It's the best way to share creme eggs with everyone. Use your favorite holiday chocolate (or even cookies or pretzels) for dipping. | HomemadeHooplah.com

Not gonna lie, I’m very excited about this recipe, and it’s probably the same reason that brought you here:

I’m absolutely obsessed with Cadbury Creme Eggs. No, not even obsessed – that’s far too mild a term. I am happily addicted to these delicious little candies and have been since I was a kid.

And this Cadbury Creme Egg Dip? It’s everything I love about the candies and more.

Now, I can’t take full credit for this genius idea. Regular readers already know what I sucker I am for dessert dips, so the foundation was already there, but my dear friend Olivia is the one that suggested that creme eggs were in dire need of the dessert dip treatment.

Easter egg dip

This dip is made completely from scratch, so you can enjoy Cadbury’s iconic taste even in the middle of summer or winter.

If you use mini chocolate bars for dipping (which I highly recommend) the taste is spot on for classic the creme eggs.

But be warned: the dip is sticky and gooey, just like the candy eggs it pays homage to, though the whipped cream goes a long way in softening it up for easy dipping. 

How to make creme egg filling

What to serve with dessert dip?

When serving this creme egg dip, I like to use little bars of chocolate, since it’s the best match if you’re trying to capture the same taste as the candy.

However, that doesn’t mean you have to serve it with chocolate. There are plenty of other options I’ve found work great with most dessert dips.

Below are a few of my favorites.

  • Nilla Wafers
  • Pretzels
  • Sugar Cookies
  • Graham Crackers
  • Cubes of pound cake
  • Golden Oreos
  • Ladyfinger cookies
  • Oreos
  • Pretzels
  • Gingersnap Cookies
  • Crumbled waffle cones
  • Cinnamon Tortilla Chips
  • Fruit

This list could go on and on. If you find a new combination for dipping, I’d love to hear about it in the comments!

Can you make this dip in advance?

Yes, you can make this in advance, but it may be tricky. What I recommend:

  • Prepare the dip as instructed, but store the white and orange portions of the dip in separate sealed containers in the refrigerator.
  • If at all possible, try to bring a hand mixer with you (or have access to one where you’re serving the dip). This is just a precaution in case any of the dip separates and needs a quick 1-2 minute whip to get everything incorporated and smooth again.
  • If the dip feels very firm and too hard to scoop, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Assemble the two portions of dip and serve!

An easy Easter dip made with Cadbury creme eggs

How long can you leave out a dessert dip?

Whenever you serve a dip for your guests to enjoy, you should always keep track of how long it sits at room temperature. Perishable items can be tricky and this recipe does include butter and Cool Whip.

For most foods, the general rule of thumb is that a perishable item should not be in the ā€œdanger zoneā€ for more than two hours. And by ā€œdanger zoneā€, this is usually at or just above room temperature, which is how this dip will be served.

As the party goes on, you can move your dip back to the refrigerator once you get past the two-hour mark. If your guests still want more dip, let it chill for at least 30 minutes before bringing it back out again.

Notes & tips for this creme egg dip

  • For this recipe, I highly recommend using a stand mixer or a hand mixer. This recipe would be difficult to make by hand with a whisk.

          Prep: 10 minutes
          Calories: 206 kcal
          Yields: 10 servings

          Ingredients

          • 1/3 cup light corn syrup
          • 3 tbsp unsalted butter softened
          • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
          • 2 1/2 cup powdered sugar
          • 8 oz cool whip softened
          • orange food coloring
          US Customary - Metric

          Instructions

          1. Using a stand mixer (or a hand mixer + large bowl), beat the corn syrup, unsalted butter, and vanilla extract on medium high speed until smooth. Mixture will be very sticky; this is okay.

          2. Drop mixer speed to low and slowly scoop in powdered sugar, about 1/2 cup at a time, until sugar is incorporated and mixture is thick.

          3. Turn off mixture and add Cool Whip to bowl, then resume mixing at low speed until smooth, about 3-4 minutes. Stop mixer and use a spatula to thoroughly scrape around the sides, then beat again for another 3-4 minutes. If needed, repeat with scraping and mixing until the sticky sugar mix is completely combined with the cool whip.

          4. Remove about 1/4 of the dip and place in a small serving bowl. Mix in orange food coloring, 1 drop at a time, until desired color is reached. For mine, I used 4 drops of gel food coloring. When finished, set bowl nearby.
          5. Scoop the remaining dip into a serving bowl of your choice. Make a small well in the top where the orange dip will go.

          6. Spoon orange dip into the well you created in the white dip.

          7. Serve dip immediately with milk or dark chocolate candy bars for dipping.

            I’m so excited to a sweet dip that doesn’t have cream cheese in it (I hate cream cheese), but I’m thinking why limit my dippers to chocolate? Graham crackers, Nilla Wafers & fruit would all be great dipped in this. But if you are still thinking chocolate try fudge stripped cookies, yummy!!! Can’t wait to get dipping.

              I know EXACTLY what you mean about the cream cheese! It has great consistency for dips, but it’s nearly impossible to cover up that tart taste. I made sure NOT to have it in this recipe for that very reason šŸ™‚ And I love your dipping ideas – all of them sound great!

            Hi! Maybe this question doesn’t really need an answer because I’m adding the answer already….but I try to make my food with as little dairy as possible, because my body doesn’t process it well, and was wondering if anyone has given you a vegan version that works well? I was thinking substitute earth balance vegan butter and So Delicious brand frozen whip topping, and assumed it would do the trick. I too have an addiction to Easter candy and it always makes me feel ill.

              Hey Elizabeth! I had to search around, but maybe coconut whipped cream would work? I’m not exactly sure how the taste would mesh with the Baileys but it has the same basic concept / consistency as the whipped heavy cream. There’s a quick tutorial on it here: http://minimalistbaker.com/how-to-make-coconut-whipped-cream/

              I totally agree Joan! When I was setting up for this shoot, I had trouble finding bars of Cadbury chocolate at my local grocery store, so I settled for the Hershey bars. At least they had festive spring wrappers šŸ™‚

            This is ridiculously good! I missed out on the Cadbury eggs because they were sold out at all the stores near me. I’ve been looking forward to making this all week, and just made it. I just hope I don’t finish it off before my an old friend of mine gets to try some.
