Homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter Eggs Cook Time: 20 minutes Makes: Up to 7 eggs Ingredients • ¼ cup Almond Breeze® Unsweetened Vanilla (or for extra creaminess use Almond Breeze® Unsweetened Almondmilk Cashewmilk Blend Vanilla) • ½ cup peanut flour • ¼ teaspoon sea salt • 3 pitted medjool dates; roughly chopped • 2½ tablespoons cocoa powder • 2½ tablespoons virgin coconut oil; melted so it is a liquid • 8 drops of liquid stevia • 1½ teaspoons maple syrup NEWS IN A NUTSHELL Directions 1. Place almondmilk, peanut flour, salt and dates into your food processor and process until a ball of dough forms (about 1 minute or so). 2. Remove ball of dough, break off pieces (about 1–2 tablespoons in size) and form into an egg shape. Place on a piece of parchment paper on a plate and freeze for about an hour. 3. Once your peanut butter eggs are frozen, combine cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, stevia and maple syrup to make the chocolate for dipping. Remove frozen peanut butter eggs from freezer, dip each (one by one) into the chocolate to cover. Place each back on the parchment paper and return to the freezer to harden. 4. They’ll be ready to enjoy within a few minutes of freezing. Store any leftovers in the freezer and remove a few minutes before eating. They freeze pretty solid but will thaw out quickly and be ready to eat within 1–2 minutes. 1 8 A L M O N D F A C T S
