During the holidays last
year, we teamed with up the editors at Delish.com to bring you a slew of
holiday-themed food videos. (Remember those Mummy Pops?)
Because we love any opportunity to get creative in the kitchen—and
because Easter is on the horizon—we figured it was high time to get
together with the folks at Delish again.

When
we started brainstorming what we could put our culinary stamp on, we
kept coming back to Easter eggs. Though the days of running through
our backyards, hunting for eggs are long gone, that doesn't mean
we don't remember the thrill of pulling apart those plastic eggshells,
anxious to see what treat awaited us inside. So, naturally, the most
obvious thing was to make an Easter egg of the adult variety—with cake
and candy, of course.
The secret to this
egg-shaped cake? Baking pound cake mix in an oven-safe measuring cup two
times, then cutting the tops of the cake, carving out the middle,
and placing the pieces on top of each other. So easy, but so impressive
looking.

And if guests aren't
impressed by how this cake looks from the outside ('cause you know they
are going to be!), just wait until you cut into it and oodles of Easter
candies spill out.
Like we said, this is our kind of Easter egg.
