Steps:

• Use sharp knife to cut 1/2-inch-thick slice off top of each chocolate egg. Discard removed slice or reserve for snacking.

Cut small piece off one bottom corner of bag; use to pipe cream cheese mixture evenly into chocolate eggs. (Eggs will be full.) Refrigerate 45 min. to 1 hour or until filling is set.
• Melt remaining white chocolate; cool completely. Stir in enough food coloring until chocolate resembles color of egg yolk. Spoon into separate resealable plastic bag.

CHEESECAKE FILLED CHOCOLATE EASTER EGGS

Steps:

• Using a small serrated knife, carefully remove the tops of the chocolate eggs. Heating the knife under warm water will make this easier and neater. I like jagged edges.
• Place the eggs in the fridge to keep them chilled while you prepare the cheesecake filling, you can use egg cups or your fridge egg holder (Don't use a cardboard egg carton).
• Place the cream cheese, icing sugar, lemon juice and vanilla in a large mixing bowl and beat on high until the mixture is smooth and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
• Set aside and carefully whip the cream in a separate mixing bowl to stiff peaks.
• Using a whisk, gently combine the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until it is smooth.
• Carefully spoon or pipe the mixture into the prepared chocolate shells. Chill eggs for at least 30 minutes to allow it to set.
• Prepare the passionfruit sauce; strain passionfruit pulp to remove the seeds and place in a small saucepan with the apricot jam and butter.
• Gently heat on low, whisking until the butter melts and the mixture is smooth.
• Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Place in the fridge and chill until it thickens slightly.
• Using a very small spoon, carefully scoop out a hole in the centre of each cheesecake, about 1/2 inch deep and wide.
• Fill hole with some of the chilled passionfruit sauce and return the eggs to the fridge to chill again for at least 30 minutes.
• Remove eggs from the fridge about 10 minutes before serving.
• Time does not include chilling time.

CHEESECAKE-FILLED EASTER EGGS

Steps:

• Carefully separate the Easter egg in half along the seam. (Use a knife dipped into a bowl of hot water to cut through the seam rather than slicing, as it may break the chocolate.)
• Tip the digestive biscuits into a bowl or food bag and bash to crumbs with the end of a rolling pin. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles damp sand. Spoon this into the Easter egg halves and pack down gently using the back of the spoon. Chill until needed.
• Mix the mascarpone, soft cheese, icing sugar and cocoa together in a medium bowl with a wooden spoon until smooth. In a separate bowl, beat the double cream to soft peaks using an electric whisk. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, then carefully spoon the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit bases in the Easter eggs. Gently level the surfaces with a palette knife or spatula, then chill for at least 2 hrs or overnight until firm and set. You may be left with extra cheesecake filling, depending on the size of your Easter eggs - this can be spooned into glasses over extra digestive crumbs for another treat.
• Scatter the set cheesecake-filled eggs with mini chocolate eggs or other Easter treats, then drizzle with caramel or melted chocolate to serve.

CHOCOLATE EASTER EGG CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Boil the kettle and place your knife into the boiling water. This will make it easier to cut the easter eggs in half. Cut the eggs in half from the side carfully and put them on a plate.
• Next put your biscuits in the food processor until turned into a powder. While you are doing that melt your butter on a low heat in the stove. Once melted add it to the crushed biscuits and give it another blitz.
• One blended, put a dessert spoon full of biscuit and butter mix in the half easter egg and smooth out. This should only fill up 1/3 of the half egg.Place this in the fridge for half to 1 hour.
• Get out 2 bowls and in 1 put your cream in, and in the other put your cream cheese and icong sugar in. With a hand whisk, whisk the cream until thick and rippled. Next whisk your icing sugar and cream cheese until combined.
• Table spoon at a time, add your icing sugar and cream cheese mix to the cream. Once added one spoon full, fold gently so you dont loose any air.
• When all is combined, spoon the mixture into your chilled easter eggs. Fill them as desired.
• Once filled grab some strawberries and cit the top off them. Next slice them but not all the way to the top. This should give a cute flower effect.
• Smash some left over chocolate and sprinkle it over the eggs. Leave to chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours. Yummy! Enjoy!
