Normally for Easter my kids and I will buy a package dye set from the local store to dye our Easter Eggs. This year with Pinterest and StumbleUpon I have found so many amazing inspirations and ideas that I think we are going to use our own supplies that we already have here at home to make our eggs. Last year I came across this really cool tutorial on how to make marbled Easter Eggs and we decided to test it out. Making Marbled eggs is very easy to do and the end results are so cool! Plus they taste just the same as a regular hard boiled egg tastes, they are just a lot more fun for kids.

Boil Marbled Easter Eggs

First you need to put the eggs in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a rolling boil and continue to boil for 7 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the water for about 5 minutes. Remove the eggs from the water and let cool until they are easy to work with and not burn your hand. About 30 minutes.

Crack the Marbled Easter Eggs

Now that your eggs have cooled down, lightly tap the eggs against a hard surface like your counter tops until there are cracks all over the egg. Make sure you don’t over do it, you want to make sure that the shell stays intact.

Color Easter Eggs with Food Coloring

Now place 1 egg at a time into each sandwich bag. Add about 7-8 drops of food coloring onto the egg and seal the bag. Now massage the dye over the egg until fully covered. Leave the eggs in the bag for 30 minutes to the let the dye set.
