# What You'll Need:
→ Peanut Butter Filling
01 - 1 cup creamy peanut butter
02 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
03 - 2 cups powdered sugar
04 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Chocolate Coating
06 - 2 cups semisweet or milk chocolate chips
07 - 2 teaspoons coconut oil or vegetable shortening
→ Decoration (optional)
08 - Sprinkles or colored candy melts
# How to Make It:
01 - In a large mixing bowl, blend creamy peanut butter, softened unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and cohesive.
02 - Gradually incorporate powdered sugar into the mixture, mixing until a dense, moldable dough forms.
03 - Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of dough and, using hands, shape into smooth egg forms. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
04 - Transfer the shaped eggs to the freezer for 30 minutes, or until set and firm.
05 - Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil or vegetable shortening in a microwave-safe bowl, microwaving in 30-second bursts and stirring until completely smooth.
06 - Using a fork, submerge each frozen peanut butter egg in the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Return coated eggs to the parchment-lined sheet.
07 - If desired, embellish with sprinkles or drizzle colored candy melts over the eggs before the chocolate hardens.
08 - Place decorated eggs in the refrigerator for a minimum of 15 minutes to allow chocolate coating to solidify.
