Peanut Butter Eggs

This is a sweet, fun idea to do for Easter. Though, you could do it for any holiday cause peanut butter in any shape is delicious. These are sweet and salty with some graham cracker crumbs for texture. Enjoy!

Recipe Source: Tidymom.net

1 1/4 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
5 Tablespoons Butter, room temp
3/4 cup Graham Cracker, crushed to fine crumbs
1 cup Powdered Sugar
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
14 oz Semisweet Chocolate

1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix together peanut butter, butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and salt until well combined.
2. Place dough on wax paper and top with another piece of wax paper. Roll about 1/4 inch thick. Remove top piece of wax paper and using an oval cookie cutter, cut out your eggs and place on wax paper lined pan. Re-roll and cut until all of your scraps have been used.
 
3. Place eggs in the freezer for about one hour. Melt chocolate according to instructions on package. Using a fork, dunk each egg in the chocolate. Use a toothpick to push the egg off the fork onto wax paper lined baking sheet and refrigerate until set.
