Step-by-Step Instructions
- Beat the softened unsalted butter in a large mixing bowl until creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually fold in the creamy peanut butter until velvety.
- Sift in the confectioners' sugar, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix on low speed until fully blended and resembling a soft, crumbly dough.
- Roll about 1.5 tablespoons of the mixture into an egg shape, approximately ¾-inch thick, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up the peanut butter filling.
- Chop the semi-sweet chocolate bars, add vegetable oil, and melt gently over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
- Dip each chilled egg into the melted chocolate using a fork, allowing excess chocolate to drip off before returning to the sheet.
- Drizzle leftover chocolate over the top and sprinkle with sea salt or colorful sprinkles. Return to the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until hardened.
