I made these into balls instead but they were very good. I had to add a little water to keep them together but otherwise, perfect!

What can I say besides OMG! These are so good! (My sister-in-law actually "swooned" after biting into one). To counteract the sweetness of the peanut butter mixture, I used bittersweet chocolate instead of semi-sweet to coat the "egg." The combination was to die for. Thanks so much for the recipe.

These were easy to make. I added a little more milk and peanut butter to make it easier to mix.(Hint: Use your hands - it is messy, but much easier.)They are very sweet, so next time I would make them smaller. One or two bites is enough for my sweet tooth. Thanks for a great and easy recipe!

These taste delicious and while they were fun to make, they were also very messy. But I knew that getting into it. My family loved them.

I split the filling into thirds and added peanut butter to one, coconut to the second, then added a tsp of maple flavoring and a quarter cup of chopped peanuts to the third. Made a lot and the kids all loved them. Will definately use this recipe again.

4.5 stars for me! Almost made ourselves sick from eating too many at one go! I followed suggestions of melting the butter, and using crunchy PB, but mixture was still v. crumbly, so mixed in extra 1T milk and the mix came together. Eggs are very sweet (but SOOOOO yummy), so next time I will use 1/2 c. less powdered sugar, and mixture probably won't be as crumbly. V. easy to shape - this batch made 36 walnut sized eggs. Didn't need to freeze the eggs for an hour - 10 minutes chilling time and the eggs were good to dip. Adding melted shortening to the chocolate thins the chocolate and makes dipping easier. 2x10 year olds and 1x4 year old made the eggs and dipped them within 1.5 hours. Excellent recipe - a real keeper!!

I made these eggs last night popped them in the fridge over night and coated them in the chocolate mixture this morning. Wish I had made them a little smaller than I did. Afeter chocolate coating them I put them in the fridge again while i melted some white chocolat with food coloring. Scooped this into a plastic baggie and swiped it across the eggs. Very pretty. Very tasty. Arranged on a plate with some green tinted coconut. Cant wait to hear my father in laws reaction!

Warning: these are extremely sweet!! They were a blast to make with my neices and nephew but the end result was litterally a ball of sugar. I couldnt even bite into it because it was so sweet, but the kids loved them.

I made these with my 10 and 4 year old sons. These were awesome! Instead of the chocolate squares, I used dipping chocolate and chocolate chips. They taste just like that "peanut butter and chocolate" candy bars! Yum! Will use this recipe over and over again! Thanks so much!

These are excellent. I have to say I avoid shortening at all costs and just used melted chocolate which seemed to work fine.

These were awesome! Following the advice of others, I used crunchy peanut butter. I did have to modify the recipe a little, as the mixture was extremely crumbly I had to add about an extra half cup of Peanutbutter. After that the mixture worked out perfectly!

These contained WAY too much sugar for the amount of peanut butter it called for. They were a crumbly mess.

T-E-D-I-O-U-S! Granted I am not a baker, but these took forever! I used exceptional chocolate (Gharardelli - spelling?) and just feel that I wasted it. Messy, timely and the eggs need to be double-dipped for full coverage. My family of 4 rejected them. ...sorry!...

Very tasty treat - my husband *loved* them. The only changes I would make is to melt the butter before adding to the mixer, and more chocolate for the coating of the eggs. I ran out early on and had to make scraggly-looking eggs by the end.

This is a great recipe! We made them for a housewarming party the day before Easter and everyone loved them. We used half creamy and half crunchy peanut butter and used that new Baker's dipping chocolate to coat them. We doubled the recipe and had about 35 eggs. It took 4 of the little dipping tubs to coat all of the eggs, but I found it a LOT easier. We also used a little of the chocolate to "stripe" the eggs by going back and forth very fast with a chocolate covered fork. They were very pretty. We put them in paper muffin liners since we were taking them to a party. One more note for the candy novices like me -- when you combine the ingredients it seems very dry, but it really holds the shape so don't be scared!
