  • Use creamy peanut butter: Creamy peanut butter will give the eggs a smoother texture. If you only have chunky peanut butter, you can blend it until it is smooth.
  • Chill the eggs before dipping them in chocolate: This will help the chocolate set more quickly and evenly.
  • Use a variety of toppings: You can use any type of topping you like, such as chopped nuts, sprinkles, or crushed cookies.
  • Store the eggs in the refrigerator: The eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
