Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Eggs

 I don't have much too say about these, besides that they are DELICIOUS.  They are creamy, but the brown sugar gives them a little crunch.... oh, so good!

You could really do a lot with this recipe.  You could put the peanut butter mixture in mini muffin tins with liner and then top with chocolate to make homemade Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.  Or, you could press it into a 9x13 pan and spread with chocolate to make bars.  Or, you could roll  it into balls and then roll them in the chocolate.  But, since Easter is coming soon, I decided to make homemade peanut butter eggs.

They were very easy to make.  If you make the peanut butter mixture into eggs, or ovals, I would suggest refrigerating them a little while before you roll them in chocolate.  An easy way to make "eggs" is to first roll the mixture into a ball and then flatten and make one end a little narrower than the other. 

Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Eggs

1/2 cup butter, melted
2 cups peanut butter
2 3/4 cup powdered sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp, vanilla

Combine.

Form into desired shape.  And, refrigerate shortly if you are going to be rolling them in chocolate.

Melt 1 bag of chocolate chips.  I like semi-sweet best, but you could do milk or dark.  Spread on the bars or peanut butter cups.  Or, roll in the balls or eggs in the chocolate.  *Note:  If you are going to be rolling them in chocolate you probably will need another 1/2 bag of chocolate chips.

Enjoy... and just don't think about what's in them!
