Cheesecake-Filled Chocolate Easter Eggs (Low-Carb, Sugar-Free, Protein-Packed)
Ingredients
For the Chocolate Shells:
1 tablespoon coconut oil
For the Cheesecake Filling:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 to 1/3 cup powdered sweetener (to taste)
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
2 scoops creamy vanilla whey protein
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional Add-Ins & Toppings:
Sugar-free cookie crumbs made from Choczero Speculoos Cookies
Colored unsweetened coconut flakes
Sugar-free jelly beans or candy
Extra chocolate drizzle
How to Make Chocolate Easter Eggs
Step 1: Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together. Stir until smooth and glossy. If using the microwave, heat in 20–30 second bursts, stirring each time to prevent scorching.
Step 2: Coat the Molds
Spoon about 1–2 tablespoons of the melted chocolate into each half of your silicone Easter egg mold. Use the back of a spoon or a pastry brush to spread it evenly, covering all the sides. Freeze for 5–10 minutes until set.
Step 3: Add a Second Coat
Repeat the process with a second layer of chocolate to make sure the shells are sturdy. Freeze again until fully set and firm.
Make the Filling
Step 4: Whip the Filling
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and fluffy. Add the sweetener, Greek yogurt, protein powder, vanilla, and salt. Mix until creamy and well-blended.
Step 5: Chill
Refrigerate the filling for 15–30 minutes so it firms up and is easier to pipe or spoon.
Assemble the Eggs
Step 6: Fill and Decorate
Pop the hardened chocolate shells out of the mold. Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling into each half. You can also sprinkle sugar-free cookie crumbs at the base for extra texture.
Top with colored coconut, sugar-free jelly beans, or a drizzle of chocolate if desired. Serve as open-faced eggs or gently press two halves together for a complete filled egg.
Tips & Variations
Don’t skip the second layer of chocolate—it helps prevent cracks when unmolding.
Use different flavored protein powders (like chocolate or coconut) for fun variations.
For colored coconut, just mix unsweetened coconut flakes with a drop of food coloring and a splash of water or vodka. Let dry before using.
Want a fruity surprise? Add a dollop of sugar-free berry preserves before adding the cheesecake filling.
Storage
Keep these eggs chilled in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze them for longer storage. Just let them sit at room temp for a few minutes before serving for the creamiest texture.
