Mini Copycat Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs

Course Dessert
Servings 17 eggs

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • ½ cup salted creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 5 tbsp almond flour
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Outer Chocolate Layer

  • ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Combine all filling ingredients together in a bowl until it forms a ball.
  • Using a ½ tbsp measuring spoon, scoop out filling then shape into egg shapes. Once all eggs are formed, place in freezer for at least 15 minutes to chill.
  • To make outer layer, place chocolate chips and coconut oil into a small bowl. Microwave for 15 sec intervals mixing each time until chocolate is melted.
  • Once peanut butter eggs have hardened, use two forks to dip the eggs in the chocolate. Let extra chocolate drip off then place on a cooling rack or parchment paper. Optional- let chocolate set a little, about 5 minutes in the fridge, then drizzle on extra chocolate across the eggs. Sprinkle with sea salt, optional.
  • Place back in freezer for 15 minutes then enjoy!

Notes

If using a cooling rack, chocolate may stick. Place back in freezer to make sure the eggs are completely hardened then press up on eggs from underneath rack to separate.
