I make these wonderful chocolate-covered peanut butter candies in the shape of eggs at Easter time.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 0.75 cups butter
  • 3.5 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 3 cups crispy rice cereal
  • 1 package semisweet chocolate chips , 12 ounce
  • 2 tablespoons shortening

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine peanut butter and butter in a mixing bowl until smooth; stir in confectioners' sugar and crisp rice cereal until a dough is formed. Refrigerate the mixture for about 1 hour to allow it to be easier to work with. Shape mixture into egg shapes and freeze for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Melt chocolate chips and shortening in a double boiler over low heat until smooth; dip egg shapes into chocolate. Place on waxed paper and allow to cool.
