Name: Easter Eggs
Ingredients: 3/4 c Chunky peanut butter; 1/4 c Butter; softened, (margarine can be used); 1 c Flaked coconut; 1/2 c Finely chopped walnuts; (I use my food processor to finely chop the nuts); 2 c Confectioners' sugar; (divided); 2 c Semisweet chocolate chips; 2 tb Shortening

“Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be Your name” (Mt. 6:9). This petition condemns much more than profane language. Whenever we introduce the Divine name in our speech uselessly and triflingly – when we employ it to turn a sentence, or give emphasis to a statement, or point to an anecdote – when we make the Divine Word the subject-matter of jokes, punning on solemn truths of Revelation, and quoting Scripture with ludicrous adaptations to provoke mirth. And even when we take this great name on our lips in worship without any endeavor to feel the homage it demands, we violate the spirit of this prayer (Newman Hall).

INGREDIENTS

3/4	c	Chunky peanut butter
1/4	c	Butter; softened, (margarine can be used)
1	c	Flaked coconut
1/2	c	Finely chopped walnuts; (I use my food processor to finely chop the nuts)
2	c	Confectioners' sugar; (divided)

2	tb	Shortening

INSTRUCTIONS

In a mixing bowl, cream peanut butter and butter. Fold in coconut, nuts and
1 cup of the confectioners' sugar and mix well. Sprinkle confectioner's
sugar on a board to keep candy mixture from sticking. Turn candy mix onto
the board and knead in enough of the remaining sugar for the mixture to
hold its shape. Shape mixture into small egg shaped pieces. Cover and chill
for about 1 hour. In a double boiler over hot water melt chocolate chips
and shortening, stir until smooth. Dip eggs into the chocolate and place on
waxed paper to harden. Chill. Makes approximately 2 dozen eggs.
NOTE: For a pretty look, the eggs can be decorated with sprinkles or other
candies.
My Mom made these eggs for years and they have become a tradition in my
family.
