1/4 pound butter, softened
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 pounds confectioners’ sugar

directions

Mix the butter and cream cheese together. Add the confectioners’ sugar and mix well. Add the peanut butter, vanilla, and salt and mix until well-blended. Place the mixture in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour. Form the peanut butter mixture into egg shapes, then refrigerate again for at least one hour.
