Ingredients to Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Easter Eggs

How to Make Keto Easter Eggs
Step 1
Line a freezer-proof surface with baking paper. You can just use a baking tray or chopping board, whatever you have available.
Step 2
Take a large, freezer-proof mixing bowl and combine the cream cheese and peanut butter with a pinch of salt. Mix everything together well with a spatula, then place the bowl in the freezer to set for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the mixture from the freezer and shape into 12 eggs using your hands. You can also use an egg-shaped chocolate mold for this step. Place the eggs on your lined freezer-proof tray and return them to the freezer for a further 5 minutes to set.
Step 4
In the meantime, melt your chopped chocolate/chocolate chips in the microwave. You can also use a double boiler if you have one available.
Step 5
Now it's time to dip the eggs in the melted chocolate. Using toothpicks, skewers or a spoon dip each egg in the chocolate mixture, then transfer them back onto the tray.
Step 6
Place the tray in the refrigerator for at least 5 minutes until the chocolate has hardened. Enjoy!
