http://www.tasteofhome.com/RD.asp?ID=4409&pmcode=TOH200704&e=73021

3/4 cup chunky peanut butter
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
1-1/2 to 2 cups confectioners' sugar, divided
2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening

In a mixing bowl, cream peanut butter or butter until well mixed. Fold
in coconut, nuts and 1 cup sugar; mix well. Sprinkle some of the
remaining sugar on a board. Turn peanut butter mixture onto board; knead in
enough of the remaining sugar until mixture holds its shape when formed.
Shape into small egg-shaped pieces. Cover and chill for 1 hour. In a
double boiler over hot water, melt chocolate chips and shortening,
stirring until smooth. Dip eggs; place on waxed paper to harden. Chill.
Yield: 2 dozen

Peanut Butter Easter Eggs

INGREDIENTS:
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' (powdered) sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup butter 1 tablespoon milk
8 (1 ounce) squares semi-sweet chocolate
1 tablespoon shortening

DIRECTIONS:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, butter and milk (if needed for moisture) until blended. Shape mixture into two 1/2 pound eggs or make a bunch of smaller eggs. Freeze eggs for 1 hour.
2. While the eggs are freezing, cut semi-sweet chocolate into small pieces and place in top of double boiler with shortening. Melt over medium heat, stirring frequently until smooth. Stick a long-tined fork in top of each peanut butter egg, dip it in melted chocolate to cover then drain on waxed paper. When the eggs are cooled and set, decorate the eggs to suit your fancy.
