Cadbury Creme Egg Patties: Similar to a peppermint patty, these Cadbury Creme Egg Patties are a fun tribute to the beloved Easter candy. Vanilla flavored patties covered in chocolate and topped with mini Cadbury Creme Eggs.
So you may recall last summer I participated Summer Dessert Week which was a lot of fun and helps drive my creativity.
This year they decided to have #EasterSweetsWeek and I jumped on board again.
Disclaimer: I did get some freebies from companies to use in the recipes, example this recipe I used Dixie Crystals powdered sugar they sent me. But the main reason I participate because it’s fun and they have a giveaway for readers.
Oh, and I get to make Easter sweets…which I love.
I love making sweets with Cadbury Creme or Caramel Eggs. I’ve made quite a few things on the blog using them. Therefore, all of my treats this week will be made with them. 🙂
I’m not sure what made me want to make these candies but I have had the idea in my head for awhile.
These are similar to a peppermint patty…except there is not mint…it’s vanilla.
Mini eggs have more of an orange center which I would have made but turns out I used all my red food coloring when I made red velvet cookies. Oops. Feel free to make your centers more orange than yellow. 😀
My candy dipping skills are just as bad as always but these were fun to make.
You don’t need to have the mini Cadbury Creme Eggs on top but they do make these more festive.

Cadbury Creme Egg Patties
⅓ cup light corn syrup
5 TBSP unsalted butter, softened
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
4-5 cups powdered sugar
Yellow food coloring
12 oz milk chocolate chips
3 oz vegetable oil
12 mini Cadbury Creme Eggs Split in half (so you will have 24)
Instructions:
Combine corn syrup, butter, extract, salt in a mixer with a stand mixer using
the paddle attachment. Beat until the ingredients are combined.
Add 1 cup of powdered sugar at a time until mixture is too stiff to stir.
Add more powdered sugar and knead mixture until it no longer sticks to the
sides of the bowl, adding more powdered sugar as necessary.
Remove half of the candy mixture and put on a baking pan lined with
parchment paper.
Add food coloring to the remaining mixture and mix until the color is evenly
distributed.
Roll out or use your hand to flatten (that’s what I do) the white candy
mixture into a rectangle about 12-x-5 inches.
Roll the yellow candy mixture into a long log and place it in the middle of the
rolled out white candy.
Take the white candy and wrap it around the yellow candy log so that it
looks like a bullseye.
Wrap in parchment or plastic wrap and freeze for two hours.
Remove and slice into 1/2 inch patties. You will get about 24.
Flatten and shape a little more round if desired.
Cover with another sheet of waxed paper and refrigerate for 60-90 minutes
or until firm.
Using a microwave safe bowl add the chocolate chips and oil.
Heat in 30 second increments until it can be stirred completely smooth. Let
rest for a few minutes.
Dip the candies into the melted chocolate with a fork, tap off the extra, and
place back on waxed or parchment paper.
Place a half a mini Cadbury Creme Egg on top while still warm so it will stick.
Repeat until all candies have been coated.
Let candies set up until chocolate is firm before storing in an airtight
container.

That may need to be stashed in the husband file for later use… he loves Cadbury Eggs. I’m partial to the Cadbury mini eggs with the crispy sugar coating myself, but they have to be the original milk chocolate ones.

I am so excited to finally get this recipe!!! I was super excited when you told me what Cadbury Creme Egg Patties were and these turned out perfectly!!! Goodness!
Erin Vasicek says
As someone who is not a fan of peppermint desserts these sound better than the original!
Sarah says
Those look so yummy! My favorite Easter dessert is carrot cake, and I’m trying to do something different with it this year – looks like Cadbury Creme Eggs on top could be the way to go!
Peabody says
