Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Make the Chocolate Shell: Melt 12 oz of white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth. Coat Easter egg molds and refrigerate for 15 minutes to set.
  2. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, whip ½ cup cream cheese and ½ cup heavy cream until fluffy. Fold in strawberry jam, freeze-dried strawberries, and crushed shortcake biscuits.
  3. Assemble the Eggs: Remove chocolate shells from molds. Fill half with strawberry filling, then press the other half on top to seal. Chill for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
  4. Decorate: Remove egg bombs from molds and drizzle with melted pink candy melts. Top with crushed shortcake crumbs and a fresh strawberry slice for decoration.
  5. Serve & Enjoy: Crack open the chocolate egg shell or bite into it to reveal the strawberry filling. Enjoy your festive treats!
