White Chocolate Peanut Butter Eggs (Printable format)

Creamy peanut butter eggs coated in white chocolate, finished with cheerful sprinkles for a festive touch.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Peanut Butter Filling

01 - 1 cup creamy peanut butter
02 - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
03 - 2 cups powdered sugar
04 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 - Pinch of salt

→ Coating & Decoration

06 - 2 cups white chocolate chips or melting wafers
07 - 2 teaspoons coconut oil (optional)
08 - 1/4 cup colorful sprinkles

# Directions:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, softened butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat until completely smooth and homogenous.
02 - Gradually add powdered sugar to the wet mixture, beating continuously until a thick, smooth dough forms.
03 - Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and shape each portion by hand into an oval egg shape. Place each egg onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
04 - Transfer the formed eggs to the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
05 - Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
06 - Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled peanut butter egg into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated egg back on the parchment-lined tray.
07 - While the chocolate coating is still wet, immediately garnish the eggs with colorful sprinkles as desired.
08 - Return the tray of coated and decorated eggs to the refrigerator and chill for 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.
09 - Transfer the set eggs to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator until serving.
