Dyeing Easter eggs with Cool Whip and food coloring is both easy and fun—and because all the ingredients are edible, Cool Whip Easter eggs are also safe to eat!
Place the eggs in a bowl filled with vinegar. Let them soak for 2-5 minutes, then remove the eggs and place them on a paper towel to dry.
Fill a small bowl with whipped cream. If making multiple colors, use one bowl per color.
Add a few drops of liquid food coloring to the whipped cream and use a toothpick to swirl the colors around. Feel free to use multiple colors per bowl to create multi-toned eggs.
Dip each egg in whipped cream, slowly rotating it until its shell is fully covered. (If desired, wear latex or nitrile gloves to prevent the food coloring from staining your fingers.)
Place the eggs on a plate or drying rack. Let them rest undisturbed for 5-10 minutes while they absorb the pigment from the food coloring. Then, use a paper towel to wipe off the whipped cream and reveal the marbled pattern on the eggs!
Notes
Whipped cream can be substituted with thawed frozen whipped topping.
