Ingredients
- ½ Cup Unsalted Creamy Peanut Butter
- 2 Tablespoon Unsalted Butter, softened
- ¼ Teaspoon Salt
- ½ Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- ¾ Cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 Cup Dark Chocolate
- 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
Instructions
- Line a tray with parchment paper and keep it aside.
- In a mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, softened butter, vanilla and salt.
- Mix everything until well combined using a spoon or spatula.
- Add the powdered sugar and mix again.
- Mix until it forms a soft, slightly firm dough that holds its shape.
- Grease your hands and divide the prepared dough into small round balls.
- Shape each portion into egg-like forms using your hands. Place the tray in the refrigerator and chill it for about 30 minutes or until they are firm.
- Once the peanut eggs are chilled and firm, start melting the chocolate for dipping. Add the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Melt until smooth using a microwave or double boiler.
- Dip each chilled egg into the melted chocolate using a fork. Make sure it is fully coated and tap off any excess chocolate.
- Place it back on the lined tray and add sprinkles on top. Let it set completely before storing.
- Serve & enjoy!
