Cool Whip Easter Eggs In Muffin Tins
These cool whip Easter eggs made in muffin tins are bright and beautiful. Create a dreamy marbled effect on your hardboiled eggs with this easy tutorial.
Equipment
- 1 Large Bowl
- 1 Muffin tin or cupcake tin
- Paper towels lots!
- Toothpicks for swirling dye, you can use a knife or fork.
Ingredients
- 12 Boiled Eggs
- 3 Cups Vinegar
- Gel Food Coloring Assorted Colors
- 1 8 oz tub Cool Whip
Instructions
- Soak the hard boiled eggs in vinegar for 15 minutes. Make sure all of the eggs are covered by the vinegar.
- While the eggs are soaking, fill each individual spot in a cupcake tin with cool whip.
- Add 4-6 drops of food coloring to each area of cool whip. Use a toothpick to swirl a pattern into the cool whip. Do not over mix.
- Place one egg in each muffin tin spot, roll to cover in the dye. Let soak for 15 minutes, or longer for more vibrant egg colors.
- Remove the eggs and wipe clean with a paper towel. Do not wash clean or the dye will come off.
Notes
- Make sure to let the eggs soak in the cool whip mixture for at least 15 minutes!
- Experiment with color combinations. One of my favorites was yellow and orange!
- Don't over-swirl the dye or you will not get a pretty pattern on the egg.
- Use lots of paper towels: this project is a little messy. Also put down some plastic or old paper to protect any surfaces from dye.
- Do not wash the eggs right away or the dye will come off.
