Peanut Butter Easter Eggs

Ingredients:
1 16oz package of Powdered Sugar
1 C Creamy Peanut Butter
1/4 Cup Butter
2 Tbsp Milk
8 oz melting Chocolate ( can use Milk Chocolate to dip)
4 oz melting chocolate for decorating (white or other colored Chocolates for decorating optional)
Sprinkles (Optional)
Directions:
In a mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar, peanut butter, butter and milk (if needed for moisture....mmm so moist) until blended. Shape mixture into two 1/2lb eggs or make a bunch of smaller eggs. Freeze eggs for about 1 hour.

Take eggs out of freezer. Melt about 1-2 cups at a time of the melting chocolates in microwave on high stirring every thirty seconds until smooth. Stick a long tined fork in top of each peanut butter egg, dip it in melted chocolate to cover then drain on waxed paper. Decorate the egg to suit your fancy (ohh, I'm fancy now!) I used white chocolates and other colors by melting in microwave and then placing in a ziploc bag. Then cut the corner of the bag and drizzle over the eggs. This was a very fun recipe to do as a family, even the little ones had fun decorating their eggs.

Serving size about 16 small eggs.
