Prep Time20 minutes
Servings: 12 servings

Ingredients

  • 12 hard-boiled eggs
  • 1 can whipped topping
  • 4 drops pink gel food coloring
  • 4 drops green gel food coloring
  • 4 drops purple gel food coloring
  • 4 drops blue gel food coloring
  • 2 cups vinegar
  • Edible silver luster dust optional
  • Pastry brush for glitter optional

Instructions

  • Place hardboiled eggs in a bowl and pour vinegar over top. Soak for 10 minutes, then take them out and dry off. Set aside.
  • Spread whipped topping evenly in a large baking dish.
  • Add drops of food coloring in lines across the whipped topping (one line per color).
  • Lightly swirl the colors with a knife to create a marble effect, don't overmix.
  • Place the eggs in the whipped topping.
  • Use a spatula to gently cover the eggs completely.
  • Place baking dish with eggs in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Remove eggs and rinse off whipped topping under cool water.
  • Let eggs dry completely.
  • Optional: Use a pastry brush to lightly dust eggs with silver edible luster dust for a soft shimmer finish.

Notes

  • You can skip the vinegar step but the eggs will be pastel and not vibrant.
  • Use a gel food coloring for deeper, richer color results.
  • Don't over-swirl the colors, less mixing creates prettier marbled designs.
  • You can use cool whip in a tub rather than whipped cream from a can.
  • Color adheres better when hard-boiled eggs are still warm.
