How To Make coconut easter eggs

  • Step 1
    Beat all ingredients, except coconut, until fluffy.
  • Step 2
    Stir in coconut to taste. Start with a half cup and increase from there. (More coconut, chewier, less creamy eggs; less coconut, creamier eggs)
  • Step 3
    Roll into small eggs. (Refrigerate before rolling if that makes them easier to roll.)
  • Step 4
    Freeze until hard. Coat with dark chocolate. Store in refrigerator.
