Instructions
 

  • Line a half sheet baking pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Using a hand mixer beat together melted butter, peanut butter, sweetener, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  • Beat in powdered sweetener
  • Press peanut butter mixture onto the sheet pan, spreading to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  • Place sheet pan in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Lift the parchment paper to remove the chilled peanut butter layer from the pan.
  • Place a new sheet of parchment paper on the pan.
  • Use a cookie cutter to cut out 1/2 inch thick Easter egg shapes from the chilled peanut butter layer.
  • Place cutouts on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  • Repress the remaining peanut butter mixture onto the sheet pan to 1/2 inch thickness, and cut out additional egg shapes.
  • Freeze for 30 minutes
  • After the "eggs" have been in the freezer for 25 minutes, make the chocolate coating.
  • Combine semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl with the coconut oil.
  • Heat and stir in 30-second increments in the microwave until the chocolate is smooth and melted completely.
  • Using a fork, lift one peanut butter cutout at a time and coat it completely with the melted chocolate. Tap excess chocolate off of the cutout and place it back onto the parchment-lined sheet pan.
  • Work in batches if the peanut butter cutouts become soft too quickly.
  • Place the sheet pan in the refrigerator to allow chocolate to harden.
