Last-Minute Super Duper Easy Peanut Butter Eggs (only 3 ingredients)

I absolutely LOVE peanut butter eggs at Easter (ok who am I kidding...all year round!) so I decided I would attempt to make my own this year.  Of course, I procrastinated and waited until the last minute and was then quite shocked when I read some recipes and realized how hard they could actually be to make.  So I went on a mission to come up with an easier recipe.  After some serious searching and experimenting I came up with a recipe that follows the same formula as the peanut butter fudge I make at Christmas. Only three ingredients are needed and they taste, if I do say so myself, AMAZING! 

Ingredients:  18 oz jar of peanut butter (any brand), regular size can of cream cheese frosting, and toll house chocolate chips.

 

Combine the peanut butter and frosting in a bowl and then put the bowl in the freezer for approximately 30 minutes to firm up.

Shape the mixture into egg shapes and then place back in the freezer for another 30-45 minutes to firm up.

Next, you want to melt your chocolate chips and then dip the peanut butter eggs in the melted chocolate.  If you want to decorate with sprinkles do so immediately before the chocolate hardens.  I then put them back in the freezer for about an hour to firm up.

Lastly, I put my eggs in cupcake holders and stored in the fridge.  I would imagine the fridge is the best place to store them as they might get soft if left out for longer than a couple of hours.
