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

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoon (28g) salted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (180g) regular creamy peanut butter (the no-stir kind – not natural peanut butter)
  • ½ teaspoon honey (optional, but it keeps the filling nice and soft)
  • ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • â…› teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar
  • 7 oz (200g) dark chocolate (I love these couverture chocolate chips)
  • sprinkles or flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whip soft butter with an electric mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
  3. Mix in creamy peanut butter, honey, vanilla, and salt until combined, approximately 1 minute.
  4. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and mix on low speed for 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and crumbly.
  5. Shape the peanut butter mixture into oval shapes resembling eggs, about ½ inch to ¾ inch thick, and place them on the baking sheet.
  6. Chill the formed eggs in the freezer for 30-60 minutes until solid.
  7. Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave, stirring gently until it reaches a smooth consistency.
  8. Remove the peanut butter eggs from the freezer, dip each into the melted chocolate, and place them back on the lined baking sheet.
  9. Drizzle additional melted chocolate over the eggs and sprinkle with sea salt or non-pareils.
  10. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the chocolate has fully set.
