2 1/2 Cups Peanut Butter (or Sunbutter to make nut-free)
1 1/2 Cups Powdered Sugar
Wilton Candy Melts or dipping Chocolate of your choice
Sprinkles!

Mix Peanut Butter & Powdered Sugar until fully combined. Place in refrigerator to firm for ~30 minutes. Roll/Press out mix onto a Sil-Pat, wax paper or parchment atop a baking sheet.

Working in small batches, Melt small amount of Candy Melts in microwave & dip PB Egg from freezer. Place on wax paper, parchment or upside down tin foil to dry. If using sprinkles, decorate immediately. Enjoy!

Combine Peanut Butter & Sugar

Spread Peanut Butter out to freeze - press down with the bottom of a pan or measuring cup if you care about having a smooth top (we used our fingers :))

Cut or mold into your favorite Easter Peanut Butter Cup shape

Like so... and yes, these are tasty just the way they are! Freeze for at least an hour for optimal dipping

Melt Candy Melts according to package directions (you can also use almond bark & just add gel food coloring). If candy melts are too thick, add some Crisco

Top with sprinkles, m&ms or just the candy coating. Great for kids to decorate! Keep in refrigerator until ready to eat!

Heathier Option (it's all relative, right???) - Fruit Dip

Using Kitchaid Mixer, or mixer of your choice, mix mix mix away. Can be made ahead of time. How easy is that?????????

Serve with healthy fruit options - strawberries, pineapple, grapes - skewer them up for more fun! and don't throw away the top of the pineapple - it makes for a GREAT centerpiece for the dish!

Tastiest - Gluten-Free Thin Mint Eggs

YUM! We love Thin Mints at Glutenista HQ so we decided to make some egg-shaped gluten-free thin mints in honor of easter. To make, simply follow our fabulous gluten-free thin mint recipe and in place of cutting them in circles, cut them with an egg shaped cookie cutter. Such a yummy gluten-free treat! Decorate as your heart desires! Would make for a very cute place setting.
