One of my favorite types of Easter candy is Cadbury Eggs. There is just something about them, I love the hard shell and the creamy middle. I thought why not combine them with another favorite treat, cupcakes! Here is a recipe for Cadbury Egg Filled Easter Cupcakes!

Now that’s a delicious cupcake surprise. I’m not sure what my fave Easter candy is. I like a lot of it, but I can only eat a little bit because it’s all so sweet.
Oh man I love my Cadbury eggs, I think if I made these they would be gone in a few seconds! YUMMMMMMMYYYY!!!
That is such a great treat that will give a real surprise to anyone who bites into these!
Oh what an awesome idea. My husband loves those eggs.
What a fun way to use Cadbury Eggs! I love cupcakes with surprises inside and I bet my kiddos would love these!
I love Cadbury eggs. I bet these cupcakes are really delicious.
These are adorable and I bet they taste heavenly!
Cupcakes with a surprise inside are the best! Love how they look and I bet they taste great!
My husband loves Cadbury eggs. My favorite is Reese’s Peanut Butter eggs. But putting a Cadbury Egg in a cupcake sounds yummy!
Oh yum. I’d love to bite into one of those!
These look so yummy!
Oh my goodness, you had me at Cadbury eggs, but once I seen how you made them. Oh my sweet tooth will be gone in just one cupcake (shoot probably half a one!) This is such a genius idea.
What a great idea. My fiance loveeees Cadbury eggs with a passion.
I’m a fan of Reeses Peanut Butter eggs. The Cadbury eggs are a favorite in our house though. I need to try these I would have thought the eggs and filling would have just melted into the cupcake while baking… can’t wait to taste them!
I used to eat Cadbury Eggs all the time when I was younger, but now I’d prefer Reeses. I thought they would’ve melted too.
Oh no, my diet is already angry at me! Cadbury Cream Eggs are a true weakness and this idea is just too awesome!
I haven’t had a Cadbury egg for ages. What a yummy cupcake recipe!
Yum! That is an incredible idea. I bet the gooey yumminess in the middle tastes incredible.
I only like caramel ones, but that sounds like a yummy idea! My mom loved Cadbury eggs. They give me a headache for some reason.
I love these creme eggs. What a fun surprise to find in a cupcake 🙂
