Did everything right for a delicious result except didn't let chocolate dry on wax paper. Kept it on cookie rack and placed in refrigerator; consequently, they stuck! But overall very, very good. Will make again!

My Grandmother gave me peanut butter eggs every Easter when I was growing up. I have been searching for a recipe so I can make them for my kids and carry on the tradition. To make it extra special, I looked online and found a company, Box and Wrap that has the cutest Easter candy boxes and candy bags. I chose the bunny shaped candy box.

These are really good, but not exactly the ones my grandmother made that I was hoping to duplicate.

I made these for Easter. They are delicious. I will make them again as peanut butter balls instead of eggs. I think that bite size would be better. The chocolate gets very soft if left out of the fridge. Less shortening would probably make the chocolate stay more firm.

This was really easy to make and I found that the easyest way to make the egg shape was to use a ice cream scooper, which made the perfect size and I was able to get 16 eggs out of it. Very cute for an Easter snack..!!!

This dessert is WONDERFUL and I always make excuses to make it year round! I make peanut butter balls and decorate them with appropriate colored sprinkles for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and they are ALWAYS a huge hit!
