Ingredients

Scale

Dip

  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Cadbury mini eggs, roughly chopped (divided: ¾ cup mixed in and ¼ cup reserved for topping)
  • ¼ cup Cadbury micro mini eggs

To Serve

  • Assorted fresh fruit (such as strawberries, apple slices, and grapes)
  • Assorted cookies (such as graham crackers or vanilla wafers)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mini egg mixture: In a small bowl, combine the roughly chopped Cadbury mini eggs with the micro mini eggs and gently mix them together.
  2. Mix the cream cheese base: In a large mixing bowl, add the room temperature cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a mixer or a sturdy spoon, blend the ingredients thoroughly until smooth and well combined.
  3. Incorporate the mini eggs: Stir in 1 cup of the prepared mini egg mixture into the cream cheese mixture, reserving ¼ cup for garnish.
  4. Assemble the dip: Transfer the cream cheese and mini egg mixture into a small serving bowl. Place the bowl centered on a tray or cutting board.
  5. Prepare the dipping platter: Arrange the selection of fresh fruits and cookies around the bowl to create an inviting platter for guests to dip into the dessert.
  6. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the reserved ¼ cup of mini eggs on top of the dip for a festive finishing touch. Serve immediately or chill briefly before serving.

Notes

  • Allow the cream cheese to come to room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother dip.
  • For a different twist, substitute Cadbury mini eggs with other chocolate candies or colored sprinkles.
  • This dip pairs well with fresh, crisp fruit and a variety of cookies for the perfect balance of textures.
  • Prepare the dip up to 2 hours ahead and refrigerate to enhance flavors and maintain freshness.
