How To Make crispies peanut butter eggs - delish!

Step 1

Combine peanut butter, butter and powdered sugar in a bowl. Blend together well.

Step 2

Add cereal and blend into peanut butter mixture. I used my hands for this part, to get thoroughly mixed.
Step 3

Form into balls or eggs. I used a good tablespoon full for the eggs.
Step 4

Chocolate coating: In a microwave safe bowl; add chips and shortening...microwave for 1 minute, stir...if all of chocolate is not melted, put back into microwave and heat another 30 seconds...
Step 5

I use a fork and dunk the eggs; letting the excess chocolate drip off. Chill to set.
