Tastes Great- Looks Bad!

I want to be 'Bakerella' - but, I think she has nothing to worry about! The small football is from her Oreo Cookie recipe. Go to bakerella.com and click on the cute football picture for the directions. (they are on the February, 4 blog). You will receive excellent advice and instructions.

now for the Big Footballs...

These are actually Peanut Butter Easter Eggs shaped into a quasi-football shape:

CHOCOLATE COVERED PEANUT BUTTER EGGS (move over Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!)

3/4 C. creamy peanut butter

1 t. salt

1 1/2 t. vanilla

1 can sweetened condensed milk

4 c. powdered sugar

Mix all ings. until thoroughly blended. Shape into egg shapes; and dip into melted chocolate. Place on waxed paper and store in refrigerator.

DIPPING CHOCOLATE:

Use store-bought dipping chocolate and follow directions for melting, -OR-

Melt 1 large bag semi-sweet chocolate chips and 2 T. shortening over a double boiler. After all is melted, dip in melted chocolate. (can be decorated with icing flowers after cooled.)
