Peanut Butter and Chocolate-Match Made in Heaven

I made these for Andy's birthday because of his love for Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. He actually didn't eat many, but everyone else did. Here's the recipe...

PEANUT BUTTER EGGS

3/4 cup peanut butter

1 t. salt

1 t. vanilla

1-15 oz. can sweetened condensed milk

4 cups powdered sugar (1 lb. box)
Chocolate chips

Mix all ings. together and form into small balls or eggs. Place balls onto cookie sheet lined with waxed paper or parchment and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

In a double boiler, place about 1/2 to 3/4 pkg chocolate chips with 2 tsp. shortening and stir until melted. Drop the balls one or two at a time and coat thoroughly. Remove and place back on the wax paper. Repeat until finished and refrigerate for a couple of hours until the chocolate has hardened.
