Directions:

In a mixing bowl, cream peanut butter and butter until well mixed. Fold in coconut, nuts and 1 cup sugar; mix well. Sprinkle some of the remaining sugar on a board. Turn peanut butter mixture onto board; knead in enough of the remaining sugar so mixture holds its shape when formed. Shape into small egg-shaped pieces. Cover and chill for 1 hour (or overnight).

In a double-boiler, over hot water, melt chocolate chips and shortening. Dip eggs; place on waxed paper to harden. Chill.
