PB Chip Cookie Dough Easter Egg Bites
Serves 18

Ingredients:
3/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup gluten-free 1:1 baking flour
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon coconut oil
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips, divided

Directions:
1. In a 350 degree oven, bake the gluten-free 1:1 baking flour for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

2. In a mixing bowl combine coconut flour, baked gluten-free flour, maple syrup, creamy peanut butter, vanilla, and salt. Once combined, stir in 1 cup of the chocolate chips. Using your (clean) hands, shape mixture into egg-shaped pieces and place on parchment lined baking sheet. The dough will make about 18 egg-shaped pieces that are about 1.5-inches in size and about 1/2-inch thick.

3. Refrigerate shaped ‘eggs’ for 30 minutes.

4. Microwave the remaining 1 cup of the chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stir and then repeat, until chocolate is melted and smooth.

5. Carefully dip each cookie dough ‘egg’ into the melted chocolate. OR alternately, using a fork drizzle chocolate over the eggs. Place on the parchment lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until chocolate is hardened. Transfer to storage container, cover and refrigerate until serving.
