Few treats scream "Easter candy" quite as loud as the Cadbury Creme Egg. Depending on your opinion, they're either delicious or a tasteless sugar bomb, but in every case, you can do better at home with a few ingredients and some time. The folks at Food52 show us how to make our own, yellow yolks and all.
The full recipe and photos walking you through the process are at the link below, but the gist is that you'll make two different batches of the same candy, one with a little yellow food coloring, and the other plain white. They also upgraded the recipe with a few fancier ingredients to boost the flavor and the smell of the candies, adding orange blossom water for scent (completely optional) and some fresh vanilla bean along with a little vanilla extract to give the candy a little flavor beyond pure sweet. They also used melted dark chocolate, a big improvement over the waxy stuff you might get at the store.
You're not getting a healthier or cheaper product by any means here?it's still all sugar and butter?but you do get to control the ingredients, ditch some of the stabilizers and other strange ingredients (as in "if you can't pronounce it, don't eat it"), and the fun of making your own, dipping them in real, delicious chocolate, and either giving them out for the holiday or eating them yourself. Hit the link below to see the whole process from start to finish.
