Description
These no-bake chocolate peanut butter eggs come with two healthy filling options — classic or date-based — and are coated in a naturally sweetened chocolate shell. Perfect for a wholesome treat!
Ingredients
Scale
Option 1: Classic Peanut Butter Filling
- ½ cup natural peanut butter
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1½ tbsp pure maple syrup
- Pinch of sea salt
Option 2: Date-Based Filling
- ½ cup powdered peanut butter
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 3 Medjool dates, chopped
- ¼ tsp sea salt
Chocolate Coating
- 2½ tbsp cocoa powder
- 2½ tbsp melted coconut oil
- 8 drops liquid stevia
- 1½ tsp maple syrup
Instructions
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, combine the ingredients for your chosen filling until a dough forms. For the date-based option, blend in a food processor until smooth.
- Shape the Eggs: Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the dough into egg shapes and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
- Freeze the Eggs: Freeze the shaped eggs for about 1 hour to firm them up.
- Prepare the Chocolate Coating: Mix cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, liquid stevia, and maple syrup in a small bowl until smooth.
- Dip the Eggs: Remove eggs from the freezer. Using a fork, dip each egg into the chocolate coating, letting excess drip off, then return to the tray.
- Final Freeze: Freeze again for 10–15 minutes, or until the coating hardens.
- Serve: Let sit at room temperature for 1–2 minutes before enjoying for best texture.
Notes
Store in the freezer in an airtight container. For a nut-free version, substitute sunflower seed butter. Adjust sweetness to taste if using a different sweetener.
