Instructions
Add cool whip into medium sized bowls or one extra large casserole dish. (If you want to do a lot of individual colors, I recommend doing separate bowls. If you would like to do mixes of colors and tie-dye eggs, I recommend one large casserole dish.)
Very heavily drizzle food coloring onto cool whip (if using the icing food colors, I dropped the icing food coloring on top with a toothpick).
Swirl it with a knife or a straw leaving some white showing (watch the video above to see how I did mine).
Roll eggs into cool whip. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes (you can see the difference in dyeing times in the video).
Rinse eggs in a bowl of water and set on paper towels to dry.

Notes
Cool Whip vs Shaving Cream: You can also use white classic fluffy shaving cream to accomplish the same thing. However, for saftey purposes if you plan to eat the eggs after dying, it's best to use food safe cool whip.
