Method
 

Making the Egg Bombs
  1. Chop the white chocolate into small pieces and melt in a microwave-safe bowl at 30-second intervals until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Coat the inside of Easter egg molds with melted chocolate and refrigerate for 15 minutes until firm.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, heavy cream, and powdered sugar. Whip until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Gently fold in strawberry jam, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, and shortcake crumbs.
  3. Remove the chilled chocolate shells from the molds. Fill half with strawberry shortcake filling, then press the other half on top to seal. Use melted chocolate as glue if necessary. Return to the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to set completely.
  4. Drizzle melted pink chocolate over the assembled eggs and sprinkle with crushed shortcake crumbs, fresh strawberry slices, and edible gold for decoration.
  5. Place the Strawberry Shortcake Easter Egg Bombs on a decorative platter. Can be enjoyed straight away or stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
