To get started making these peanut-butter-filled desserts, thoroughly mix together peanut butter, syrup and whole wheat flour until a dough-like consistency has formed. Roll about a tablespoon of the peanut butter dough into egg-like shapes and place each “egg” on a lined baking sheet (we suggest using parchment or freezer paper!). Pop the peanut butter eggs in the freezer for about 30 minutes. While the eggs are freezing, begin melting chocolate with coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl.
