Begin by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it's flat and secure.

In a mixing bowl, beat ½ cup of softened butter using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes, or until creamy and smooth.

Incorporate 1 cup of creamy peanut butter into the creamed butter, mixing on low speed until fully combined.

Gradually add 2 cups of confectioners' sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, mixing until a crumbly mixture forms.

Use your hands or a cookie scoop to portion out the mixture and roll into egg shapes.

Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to chill.

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate and 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil and melt in 30-second intervals.

Dip each chilled peanut butter egg into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated.

Return the dipped eggs to the parchment-lined sheet and drizzle any remaining melted chocolate over them.

Return to the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to set.
