  • Plastic mold such as a melon egg or ice cube tray

  • Remove ice cream and frost each egg with part of the cream mixture.
  • Return ice cream to the freezer.
  • Divide the remaining cream mixture into as many bowls as you would like colors for the eggs.
  • Tint each cream mixture with a different color of the food coloring.
  • Remove ice cream from the freezer.
  • Use a pastry bag or baggie with one corner cut out to pipe the colored cream mixture onto each egg.
  • Return to the freezer and freeze until firm.
