HOMEMADE REESE'S EGGS
3 Cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter 1/4 cup butter or margarine melted 2 Tablespoons milk
1-2 bags milk chocolate chips
2 Tablespoons shortening
Directions:
Beat together powdered sugar, peanut butter, and butter together. At this point the dough will be crumbly. Add two tablespoons of milk and continue to beat together until the dough softens. If the dough still seems crumbly that is ok.
On a floured surface, roll the dough out to desired thickness. About 1/2 thickness. You can use egg cookie cutters or with a knife, shape the dough to look like eggs.
Place eggs on a cookie sheet and put in the freezer for an hour.
When you are ready to dip them, add the chocolate and 1 Tablespoon shortening and melt in the microwave 30 seconds at a time, stirring after every 30 seconds (careful not to burn the chocolate).
Dip each egg in chocolate. I used a spoon to help cover in the chocolate.
Place them on wax paper to set.
If more chocolate is needed, melt the second bag with the shortening.
Makes approximately 20 eggs.
