White Chocolate Peanut Butter Eggs (Printable)

Irresistible peanut butter centers in white chocolate and sprinkles, ideal for celebrating or sharing with loved ones.

# What you 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, for smoother coating)
08 - 1/4 cup assorted colorful sprinkles

# How to make it:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, beat together the peanut butter, softened unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until thoroughly smooth.
02 - Gradually incorporate powdered sugar, mixing until a thick and cohesive dough forms.
03 - Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and shape each into an oval egg. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
04 - Transfer the shaped eggs to the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes, allowing them to firm up.
05 - Melt white chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl using 30-second increments, stirring after each interval until smooth and fully melted.
06 - Immerse each chilled peanut butter egg in the melted white chocolate to coat completely. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back onto the parchment-lined tray.
07 - Immediately garnish the coated eggs with sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
08 - Refrigerate the decorated eggs for 10 minutes to set the chocolate coating.
09 - Store the finished eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

# Helpful Hints:

01 -
  • These eggs taste like the best parts of peanut butter cups dressed up for spring, and the white chocolate makes them extra luxurious.
  • They&s quick to make, easy to decorate, and perfect for gifting—my friends always light up when they see them in a basket.
02 -
  • If the chocolate is overheated it turns thick and grainy, so melt in short intervals and stir often.
  • Chilling the eggs before dipping is essential—if you skip this step, the filling can melt and make a mess.
03 -
  • Roll the eggs gently—if you press too hard, cracks can form in the filling and show through the coating.
  • Use pastel sprinkles for a classic look, but metallic ones add sparkle for grown-up parties.
