Perfect for spring brunch tables, Easter baskets, or gifting in cute egg cartons, these no-bake peanut butter eggs taste like a cross between a Reese’s cup and edible artwork.

Let’s crack into it.
✨ Ingredients
Peanut Butter Filling:
1 cup creamy peanut butter (unsweetened)
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
Chocolate Shell:
2 cups white chocolate chips or melting wafers
1/4 tsp blue spirulina powder (for color)
1/4 tsp matcha powder (for a mossy undertone)
1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother coating)
For Speckling:
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp clear vanilla extract, vodka, or water
1 clean, food-safe paintbrush
🍬 Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Make the Dough
In a large bowl, stir together the peanut butter, almond flour, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt until a soft dough forms. It should hold shape but still be pliable. If it feels too soft, chill for 10–15 minutes.
Step 2: Shape the Eggs
Scoop 1–2 tablespoon portions of the dough and roll them into egg shapes using your hands. Place each one onto a parchment-lined tray. Once shaped, freeze for 30–60 minutes until firm.
Step 3: Melt & Color the Chocolate
In a heat-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring in between until smooth. Stir in spirulina and matcha powders until you achieve your desired robin’s egg blue. If it’s too thick, add a teaspoon of coconut oil.
Step 4: Dip & Set
Use a fork or skewer to dip each chilled peanut butter egg into the colored chocolate. Tap off excess and place back on the tray. Allow to set at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.
Step 5: Speckle Like a Pro
Mix cocoa powder with clear vanilla extract (or vodka/water) to make a thin paint. Dip a brush into the mixture and flick it over the eggs for that authentic speckled effect. Let dry completely.
🌸 Tips & Styling Suggestions
Use a ceramic egg tray or a tiered dessert stand to present these on your table—they photograph beautifully.
Mix in a little beet powder or turmeric for natural pastel variations if you're feeling adventurous.
These store well in the fridge for up to a week. Just keep them in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
