Ingredients
  

Peanut Butter Filling
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter smooth
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup for vegan option
  • 1/2 cup protein powder vanilla or chocolate flavor
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
Chocolate Coating
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips preferably 70% cocoa or higher
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil for smooth melting

Method
 

Prepare the Filling
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, protein powder, and coconut flour. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.
Shape the Eggs
  1. Scoop out a tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture and shape it into an egg. Place it in a silicone mold. Repeat until all filling is used.
Chill the Filling
  1. Place the filled molds in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt the Chocolate
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Coat the Eggs
  1. Remove the peanut butter eggs from the molds. Dip each egg into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
Chill Again
  1. Return the coated eggs to the refrigerator for an additional 15 minutes to set the chocolate.
