Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter see notes for drippy VS non-drippy nut butter
  • 2 heaping tbsp coconut flour or a heaping 1/3 cup of almond flour (6 TBSP)
  • ΒΌ cup maple syrup 3-4 tbsp depending on preference!
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil optional: for melting the chocolate easier
  • Add ins optional! Easter m and m's, flaky sea salt, fun sprinkles, or vanilla extract in the mixture

Instructions

  • First, combine the peanut butter and maple syrup until smooth. Add in vanilla extract is using.
  • Next, add the coconut flour and stir until combined. * Since coconut flour is extremely absorbant, you will need to let the dough rest for about 2-3 minutes.
  • While your dough is "resting," grab a parchment-lined baking sheet. Then scoop out with a tablespoon 14-16 circles, and flatten and shape into eggs (or whatever shape you prefer.
  • Once your eggs are formed on the lined baking sheet, freeze them for about 30-45 minutes or until solid.
  • During the last few minutes, melt your chocolate. I recommend melting it with some coconut oil to thin the chocolate, making it easier to dip. Melt the chocolate in a microwavable bowl in 30-second intervals, mixing inbetween until smooth.
  • Next, dip your Reese's eggs into the dark chocolate. If you are impatient like me, it will be messy. However, be fancy and use two forks to dip each egg back onto the parchment paper.
  • Once the eggs are all dipped, feel free to be creative and add an extra decorative chocolate drizzle, fun sprinkles, or flaky sea salt!
  • Place back into the freezer for about 30 minutes before serving!
  • Finally, serve and enjoy these little treats! Store these in an airtight container or bag in the refrigerator for up to a week. Otherwise, I like to freeze them as they will last up to 3 months (and I like the texture of the freezer ones)!

Notes

*If you are wanting to add m and m's, add them at this point!
