Description
A delicious and easy-to-make homemade version of the classic chocolate and peanut butter Easter treat.
Ingredients
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 oz milk chocolate chips
Pastel confetti sprinkles
Instructions
Step 1: Combine the peanut butter and softened butter in a medium bowl until creamy and well incorporated.
Step 2: Mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla until a thick dough forms that can be easily shaped.
Step 3: Roll the dough into 12-14 small balls and flatten them into egg shapes on a parchment-lined tray.
Step 4: Freeze the eggs for at least 1 hour until very firm to make the dipping process easier.
Step 5: Melt the chocolate in the microwave and dip each egg, topping with sprinkles before the chocolate hardens.
Step 6: Refrigerate until the chocolate is set and serve at room temperature.
Notes
Ensure the peanut butter centers are completely frozen before dipping to avoid them melting into the warm chocolate.
