These White Chocolate Peanut Butter Easter Eggs are so easy (no baking required), and they taste just like the white chocolate Reese’s peanut butter cups that we love to pick up from the convenience store! They would be the perfect homemade treats in a child’s Easter basket, a festive addition to an Easter dessert buffet, or a nice little centerpiece on your table for Easter brunch.
This is actually the same recipe that I used for my Dinosaur Eggs a few months ago, but here I substituted peanut butter for the chocolate hazelnut spread and I decorated my eggs with a rainbow of pastel-colored sprinkles.
Happy Easter, friends!
