Homemade Peanut Butter Eggs

Step 1

Place cream cheese and butter in a large mixing bowl or stand mixer and beat until smooth.

Step 2

Add the peanut butter and mix until combined, then beat in the sugar and mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Once that’s smooth, add in the powdered sugar and beat until well mixed.

Step 4

Scoop mixture using a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop or large spoon and form into egg shapes. Place the eggs on a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze for about 30 minutes, until the eggs are firm.

Step 5

Place each type of melting chocolate in a separate bowl and microwave each bowl for 30 seconds, then stir. Repeat 30 second increments, stirring after each one, until chocolate is melted and smooth.

Step 6

After eggs are chilled, use two forks to dip each egg in the melted chocolate. Make sure to completely cover the egg and gently shake off any extra chocolate.

Step 7

Place the dipped eggs back on the parchment paper. While the chocolate is still soft, add sprinkles to make them more festive.

Step 8

Allow chocolate to set then serve!
