Ingredients
2 cups dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup Peanut Butter & Co White Chocolate Wonderful
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Pinch salt
1/3 cup malted milk powder
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 tbsp. milk
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
3 tbsp. sprinkles
Special equipment: Decorative egg molds (about 2 tablespoon-capacity per mold)
Directions
Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH, stirring twice, until chocolate is warmed through and melted, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
Using a pastry brush (IMPORTANT), brush molds with melted chocolate. Set mold in freezer and freeze until chocolate is solid, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine peanut butter, butter and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on medium-low speed until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute.
With mixer on low, add malted milk and sugar in 1/4-cup increments, making sure to thoroughly incorporate each addition before adding the next. Stir in milk and vanilla extract to loosen, then the sprinkles.
Place about 1 heaping tablespoon filling mixture in each mold, pressing to make a flat surface. Pour the remaining chocolate over the top and refrigerate until solid. Remove candies from molds and transfer to a wax-paper-lined storage container. (Put a sheet of wax paper between layers of candies.) Store candies in refrigerator for up to 1 week.
