Gather all your tools/ingredients first. Yes first;)... saves so much time.
Cut a slit into each date.
Using a teaspoon, stuff dates with peanut butter, about 1/2 to 1/3 teaspoon each.
In a small bowl, melt chocolate chips and butter until silky smooth. Do this in 30 second increments to avoid burning chocolate.
Dip and roll dates in the melted chocolate and place on cookie sheet.
For Easter, sprinkle a few Sprinkles on each for color. Crushed nuts or coconut would be delicious as well. Place in refrigerator to set chocolate.
Enjoy your healthy Easter eggs anytime of the year!
