I'm not sure how I feel about these eggs. They're definitely unique, but I'm not sure if I like the combination of peanut butter and chocolate.

These eggs are a great way to use up leftover peanut butter. I always have a jar of peanut butter in my pantry, so I can make these eggs anytime.

I had trouble getting the chocolate coating to stick to the eggs. I think I might have used too much peanut butter.
