Description
Homemade Peanut Butter Easter Egg Delights make your holiday extra sweet. Chocolatey, creamy, and satisfying in every bite. Share these eggs with friends or enjoy as a solo treat.
Ingredients
- 16 oz icing sugar
- 1 cup peanut butter (plain ground peanuts; if using sweetened, reduce sugar)
- 1/4 cup Earth Balance for vegan
- 1–4 tbsp soy milk
- About 16 squares of baking chocolate (70% dark works well)
- 2 tbsp vegetable shortening
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix 16 oz icing sugar, 1 cup peanut butter, and 1/4 cup margarine. You’ll need to really get in there; hands-on mixing works best.
- Slowly add 1–4 tbsp milk just until the mixture holds together.
- Be careful not to overdo it or the eggs won’t keep their shape.
- Shape the mixture into egg forms.
- Plastic Easter egg molds are perfect for this. Pop them in the fridge to firm up while you prep the chocolate.
- Melt 16 squares of baking chocolate with 2 tbsp vegetable shortening in a double boiler. Stir until smooth.
- Spread a few drops of chocolate on the flat end of each egg and freeze to set.
- Once set, pop the eggs out of the molds, spear with a toothpick, and dip the top in the chocolate.
- Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and return to the freezer.
- After chocolate firms, wrap in plastic wrap or Easter foil, hide, and enjoy watching the magic happen.
Tip: The eggs are surprisingly smooth and just sweet enough; the peanut butter flavor isn’t overpowering.
