Ingredients

5” plain New York style cheesecake from the deli of your local grocery store
Rich, creamy, and already made – room temperature is best.
Bag of Cadbury Mini Eggs, crushed – these colorful chocolate eggs bring crunch, color, and a little Easter magic to every bite.

A mixing bowl with cookie dough containing chocolate chips and colorful candy pieces sits under a mixer. The dough is partially mixed, with chunks of ingredients visible. The mixer is placed on a light wooden surface.

Instructions

Break the cheesecake into chunks and place in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
Use a rolling pin to crush the mini eggs right in the bag until they’re broken into small pieces.
Add the crushed mini eggs to the cheesecake.
Using the paddle attachment (or a sturdy spoon), gently mix until combined.

Tips & Tricks

Let your cheesecake sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before mixing for a smoother, more dip-able texture.
A large mixing bowl helps avoid any candy bits flying out while stirring—especially if kids are helping!
This dip keeps well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3–4 days, but is best served immediately as it becomes more like a cookie dough when cooled and the colors of the Mini Eggs fade.
If you’d like to lighten things up or stretch it further, fold in a bit of Cool Whip or Greek yogurt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this with a homemade cheesecake?
Sure! If you’ve got leftover cheesecake (or love baking from scratch), feel free to use that instead of store-bought.

What are the best dippers?
We love using graham crackers, fruit slices, vanilla wafers, and even pretzels for a salty-sweet combo. It’s fun to set out a little variety on your Easter table!

Can I use other Easter candy?
Yes! Crushed Cadbury Creme Eggs or even chopped chocolate eggs work too. Just keep an eye on color bleeding if they have a soft filling.
