With time whizzing by, Easter is on the horizon again. We have had mild sunny weather in the UK this week and so spring is on the horizon too. It is a nice time of year. It is also a time of year for chocolate (although, for me, any time of year is a time of year for chocolate!).
The creme filling here features coconut cream, coconut sugar and custard powder. I remember that it was delicious and that the bunnies did not last long! The filling is firmer than commercial creme eggs but has a similar taste. You can use whatever chocolate you like for the coating, but a good quality one will give a better flavour result.

Print recipe
Ingredients
1/4 cup coconut cream (the solid part of a can)
2 tbsp coconut sugar
1 tbsp custard powder
Dash vanilla essence
150g dairy free chocolate
Silicon chocolate moulds, or small alfoil muffin cases (if using the latter you will have creme cups rather than eggs)
Method
Beat the coconut cream, coconut sugar, custard powder and vanilla together until smooth, using a small blender / food processor or an electric mixer. Set aside.
Melt the chocolate and use approximately one-third of the melted mixture to line the bottom of your chocolate moulds or muffin cases. Place in the fridge for a few minutes until slightly set (it will still be soft).
Spoon the creme filling over the chocolate base, and then use the remaining melted chocolate to cover the tops and sides.
Allow to set in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Kari these are awesome. I really love the golden custard filling. I'd love to give these a go, my only hesitation is I am not really that much into chocolate - so it will have to been when I am in the mood - also we still have lots of choc boxes from Christmas to eat. By the way, Where did you get your bunny moulds from?
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at your lack of enthusiasm for chocolate :-) I'm glad you like the look of these though.
DeleteI'm afraid I don't remember where I got the moulds from! I can say they are from Australia and many years ago, so probably not much help to you. I wonder if Amazon or similar would sell them?>

The idea of adding custard powder appeals though I almost bought a hot cross bun for sylvia yesterday and then caught myself saying it is not even shrove tuesday yet, not time yet for hot cross buns! So it still feels like a long time til easter but I know it will come soon and i am glad you have posted these and they look delicious!
ReplyDeleteI thought I better not miss posting them two years in a row ;)
DeleteWhat a fab idea! I think this filling eould be great in all kinds of chocolates - I must give it a go.
ReplyDeleteIt would definitely generalise to non-Easter treats too :-)
DeleteOoooh these are SO CUTE! I need a bunny mold. I really want to try making these - they sound super delicious. And a fun treat.
ReplyDeleteWhat is custard powder? I'm not sure I've come across that. Is there something I can perhaps substitute? Do you think it would really change the recipe if I omitted it?
I wonder if it's not an American product? It's really common in Australia and the UK - you use it to make custard from scratch. You could sub in cornflour as that's the main ingredient in custard powder, maybe with a bit of vanilla too for flavour :-)
DeleteThose are absolutely brilliant - so cute, and a type of chocolate that I really wish I had more of in my life! I've got some bunny moulds at home, only they're massive - but I think in this case that's no bad thing, I can just have supersized versions!
ReplyDeleteA supersized version would be amazing!!
