  • Total Time: 0 hours
  • Yield: 10 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoon (28g) salted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (180g) regular creamy peanut butter
  • ½ teaspoon honey (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • â…› teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar
  • 7 oz (200g) dark chocolate
  • sprinkles or flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whip the softened butter with an electric mixer or a spatula until smooth and creamy (about 1 minute).
  3. Add peanut butter, honey, vanilla, and salt to the bowl, and mix until combined (about 1 minute).
  4. Gradually incorporate confectioners' sugar on low speed for 2 minutes until combined. The mixture should be a little soft and crumbly.
  5. Portion out 1 ½ tablespoons of the peanut butter mixture, roll it into a ball, and flatten it between your palms to form an oval shape resembling an egg. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
  6. Chill the formed peanut butter eggs in the freezer for 30-60 minutes until solid.
  7. Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave, stirring gently until melted and smooth.
  8. Work with 5 peanut butter eggs at a time. Dip each egg into the melted chocolate using a fork; lift and let excess chocolate drip. Place back onto the lined baking sheet.
  9. Once the chocolate coating sets, drizzle leftover chocolate over the eggs and sprinkle with non-pareils or flaky sea salt.
  10. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the chocolate has completely set before enjoying.

Notes

Using no-stir creamy peanut butter is recommended for the ideal texture.
If the peanut butter mixture is too soft to shape, chill it briefly in the refrigerator.
For a fun twist, try adding different toppings like crushed nuts or colored sprinkles.
