These peanut butter eggs are to die for. I don’t know what to say other than I just ate three with my coffee in about two minutes flat. These are freaking amazing. I’m feeling a little sick because I haven’t had breakfast yet, but truly they are a special little quick dessert. If you are making these for Easter you can add sprinkles or stripe them with white chocolate. All options are equally delicious. Recipe is below!
