How Do You Make Peanut Butter Easter Eggs?
For those peanut butter and chocolate lovers, peanut butter eggs are delicious treats to have for Easter. Adults and kids alike can enjoy making this candy at home using ingredients that can be found easily in a grocery store. Combine eight ounces of cream cheese and one cup of butter or margarine in a bowl. Mix in one-half teaspoon of salt, one-and-a-half teaspoons of vanilla, two pounds of powdered sugar and the peanut butter. Form the mixture into small Easter egg-shaped balls using your hands or baking molds. Make enough for at least 12 servings. Put wax paper onto a cookie sheet. Then, place the peanut butter eggs on the cookie sheet. Freeze them for two hours. Add chocolate coating to your peanut butter eggs. Melt some chocolate bars or chocolate chips in the microwave or in a double boiler pot on the stove. Remove the peanut butter eggs from the freezer after two hours. Using toothpicks, dip the eggs into the melted chocolate and place them onto an extra sheet of wax paper. Allo
