- Add the oil to the chocolate and stir vigorously to combine. Make sure the chocolate is at room temperature- or just slightly warm before dipping the eggs in. - Using two forks, dip the peanut butter mounds into the chocolate, tapping the fork on the side of the bowl to get rid of any excess. Make sure the egg is coated completely.
- To make marbled eggs, add some white chocolate to the melted semi-sweet chocolate (don’t stir the chocolates!), then dip the egg and the result will be a black-and-white swirl. - Place the chocolate covered egg back onto the parchment lined sheet and top with sprinkles. - Let the chocolate solidify completely on the eggs before serving.
