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.

- Step 1: In a large bowl, mix 2 jars (12.5 ounces each) creamy peanut butter, 4 cups confectioners' sugar and 1/4 pound (8 tablespoons) butter. The batter should be creamy, but thick. If not thick enough, gradually add a little more confectioners' sugar. This batter must be refrigerated for at least 2 hours before working with it, and preferably a day ahead.
- Step 2: Once the batter is chilled, take small amounts out of the fridge, and roll into small balls and shape into eggs. Store the eggs in a plastic container in layers that are separated by waxed paper. Freeze. When eggs are completely frozen, take a few out at a time to dip into chocolate.
- Step 3: To melt the chocolate, place 1 cup chocolate wafers into a small bowl (glass, not plastic) with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. The oil adds a little shine to the chocolate. Melt in the microwave slowly in 45-second increments, until completely melted. Dip frozen eggs, a few at a time, into the chocolate.

- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter and cream cheese on medium-speed until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed; about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract and salt. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add in the confectioners' sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition, until all of the sugar has been added. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for at least one hour. Scoop 2 tablespoon sized portions of the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet. Using your hands, form each round into egg shapes. If the mixture is sticking to your hands, try coating them in a little confectioners' sugar. Once all of the eggs have been shaped, place the pan into the freezer for at least an hour.
- In a microwave safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate and 2 teaspoons of oil. Microwave on low power, in 30 second increments, stirring in between each increment, until completely melted. Set aside to cool for a few moments while you prepare the white chocolate, if using. In a second microwave safe bowl, combine the white chocolate and remaining 1 teaspoon of oil. Microwave on low power, in 30 second increments, stirring in between each increment, until completely melted. Set aside to cool slightly while you dip the eggs in the semi-sweet chocolate.

- 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.

- Press into a 9x13" pan lined with parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator until cooled, about 30-60 minutes.
