Maple Peanut Butter Eggs
Course: DessertDifficulty: EasyIngredients
- Peanut Butter Filling
1 cup chunky peanut butter (unsweetened)
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- Maple Chocolate
4 oz 100% cocoa bakers chocolate
2 tbsp coconut oil
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tbsp maple sugar
Method
- Line a plate with clingfilm or wax paper
- Combine the peanut butter filling ingredients and mix to combine
- In a double boiler, melt coconut oil
- Add chocolate to coconut oil and melt
- Stir in maple syrup and maple sugar
- Take about a tablespoon of peanut butter mixture and roll into an egg shape
- Roll peanut butter egg in chocolate to coat
- Carefully remove coated egg from chocolate and place on lined plate
- Once all eggs are coated, refrigerate for a few hours to solidify
Notes
- Because coconut oil is used in this chocolate, it has a very low melting point — it’ll make a mess if you hold it in your hand as you eat it. Replacing the coconut oil with butter would raise the melting point.
