How to Make Homemade Cadbury Creme Eggs
- Combine the butter, Lyle's Golden Syrup, and condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and desired food coloring until evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth, thick fondant is formed.
- Refrigerate the fondant for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.
- Once the fondant is firm, roll it out on a lightly powdered sugar surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a 2-inch cookie cutter to cut out circles. Place half of the circles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Spoon a generous amount of chocolate ganache onto each circle. Top with another circle to create the egg shape.
- Refrigerate the assembled eggs for at least 1 hour to allow the chocolate to set.
- Melt the milk chocolate according to the package directions. Dip each egg in the melted chocolate to fully coat, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Place the finished eggs on a fresh sheet of parchment paper and refrigerate for an additional 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to fully set.
- Once the chocolate is set, your homemade Cadbury Creme Eggs are ready to enjoy!
