White Chocolate Peanut Butter Eggs (Printable)

Smooth peanut butter filling coated in white chocolate, topped with sprinkles. Festive treats for any occasion.

# 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 and Decoration

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

# Steps:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, softened butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat with electric mixer until mixture is creamy and uniform.
02 - Gradually add powdered sugar to the mixture, mixing thoroughly after each addition, until a thick, smooth dough forms.
03 - Scoop tablespoon-sized portions and form into egg shapes. Arrange eggs evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
04 - Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and chill the eggs for 30 minutes, allowing them to firm.
05 - Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
06 - Dip each chilled peanut butter egg into the melted white chocolate using a fork or dipping tool. Ensure an even coating and allow excess chocolate to drip off. Return coated eggs to parchment-lined tray.
07 - Immediately apply assorted colorful sprinkles to the coated eggs before the chocolate begins to set.
08 - Chill the decorated eggs in the refrigerator for an additional 10 minutes until the chocolate is fully set.
09 - Place finished eggs in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator until serving.
