I’ve got something a little different for you today! With Easter coming up I’ve had chocolate eggs on the brain…
But I wanted to come up with a fun way to enjoy dessert on the day that wasn’t just about eating more chocolate!
This vegan Easter dessert isn’t overly sweet or packed with sugar, so you can feel good about indulging.
It’s also gluten-free, and naturally dairy-free, so it’s suitable for a range of diets. Kids love it too – mine wholeheartedly approve!

There’s a little bit of ‘setting time’ required for the chocolate eggs. But these are a great thing to make in advance – and to get your kids involved with too.
Once the chocolate eggs are in the fridge to set, the rest of the preparation takes only minutes to put together. Super convenient if you’re having people around for Easter lunch or dinner.
Making these vegan Easter treats is a three part process. Start ahead of time with the chocolate cups, as the rest only takes minutes to throw together.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and add it to a heat-proof or metal bowl. Place the bowl above simmering water and let the chocolate melt. You can also use the microwave for this step, but heat the chocolate in small bursts as to not overheat it.
Pour 1-2 tablespoons of melted chocolate on the baking paper/sheet and make a circular disc with a diameter of about 6 cm, make sure your discs are not too thin and as smooth as possible. These will form the bases of your eggs.
Repeat the same process to form 4/5 discs and place them in the refrigerator to set and solidify.
