Steps:
- Mix the butter and cream cheese together. (I put mine in the microwave for 40 secs. to soften), then cream together.
- Add the confectionary sugar about 1 cup at a time, and mix well. (I use my hands to mix it all in).
- Add the peanut butter, vanilla, and salt, and mix until well-blended. (I use my hands to mix it all in).
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hours (I stick the bowl in the freezer for about 1/2 hr., to harden the dough.
- Form the peanut butter mixture into egg shapes, then refrigerate again for at least 1 hour (Again, I put them in the freezer instead of the fridge).
- Melt the chocolate in a microwave oven or in a double boiler. (I had better results using a double boiler, because the steaming water helps the chips to stay creamy longer).
- Quickly place the eggs, doing one at a time, in the chocolate mixture to coat the bottom, then lift it with a thin spatulda, and with a knife I spread all along the sides and top of the egg, then with the knife I fluff the top of the chocolate to make the eggs look pretty. Just press down on the chocolate and lift up, with a butter knife. Do it all over the top of the egg.
- You have to work quickly while the eggs are frozen, as the heat from the chocolate chips makes them soft again rather quickly. If you notice them getting too soft, stick them back in the freezer for a few minutes.
- Arrange the chocolate coated eggs on a waxed paper lined tray, and allow the chocolate to harden. (I stick mine in the freezer for easier handling when coating with the chocolate).
- Place each peanut butter egg in a paper candy cup.
- You can decorate your eggs with pastel colored Easter sprinkles or pastel jimmies, found in the cake/decorating section at the grocery store.

My Mom made these chocolate-dipped peanut butter eggs for many years. She would put our names on them in frosting and decorate with bunnies and flowers. They bring back wonderful memories.

Steps:
- In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter and peanut butter together over medium heat. Once the butter and peanut butter mixture is melted pour it into another large bowl. Stir in the vanilla. Stir in the powdered sugar until well combined. Place into fridge for 30 minutes. Remove from fridge and roll dough into large egg shapes I normally get about 15-16 eggs. Roll smaller eggs to get more. Lay eggs on a tray that has been lined with paper towels. The paper towels will soak up some of the oils. Place eggs on tray with paper towels and place into the fridge to 2-3 hours. Remove eggs from fridge. Melt chocolate according to package directions. Dip each egg into the chocolate and tap off excess. Place eggs onto a tray lined with parchment paper. Top each egg with a sugar flower. Let chocolate eggs dry until Chocolate hardens.

- Combine creamy peanut butter and softened butter in a large bowl (or preferably in the bowl of a stand mixer) and use an electric mixer to beat until creamy and well-combined.
- Gradually, about ½ cup at a time, add powdered sugar, mixing on low-speed until all sugar is absorbed and mixture clinging together. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottoms of the bowl with a spatula as needed.
- Once all ingredients have been well-combined, the "dough" should be pretty dry but you should be able to mold it together in the palm of your hand and form a ball easily. If it is too crumbly and not holding together, you can add a bit of milk or additional peanut butter, one teaspoon at a time. If it's too wet and sticking to your hands, add more powdered sugar, a Tablespoon at a time.

- In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, combine the peanut butter, butter, vanilla and 1 cup of the powdered sugar. Heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is completely melted and just starts to bubble. Remove from heat.
- Add the remaining ¼ cup of powdered sugar, stirring until completely combined. Turn out the peanut butter mixture onto the prepared pan with parchment paper. Using a butter knife, smooth out the dough flat even thickness of about ½-inch. This will help the mixture cool faster and make it easier to divide up when forming the eggs. Set aside and let cool to room temp.
- Divide the dough into ten 2-inch balls. Shape the dough into flattened ovals, to mimic the shape of an egg, placing each egg back on the lined baking sheet. Place the sheet pan in the freezer for one hour, or until hard.

- In a large bowl, microwave peanut butter and butter until almost melted. Mix well or beat with an electric mixer until combined. Add vanilla and salt and mix until combined.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing with an electric mixer until combined. It will be a little crumbly at this point. Add enough milk so that a soft peanut butter "dough" comes together -- it will firm up as it cools so we want it on the softer side.
- Press into a 9x13" pan lined with parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator until cooled, about 30-60 minutes.
- Remove peanut butter filling from pan and peel away parchment paper. Use an egg shaped cookie cutter to cut shapes out of filling. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Rework any leftover peanut butter filling, rolling it into a ball and pressing it into the cookie cutter to make egg shapes with remaining filling. Place baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for 30-60 minutes, until firm.
