Mix together the sugar, softened margarine, cream cheese and vanilla in a bowl. Divide the mixture into two bowls, equally in half. In one bowl: add in the peanut butter, and in the other bowl: add in the coconut.
Shape the mixture with hands into eggs, and place on cookie sheets. Freeze the eggs.
In a double boiler, melt together the shortening and semisweet chips. Use a toothpick and dip the eggs to coat. Cover cookie sheets with baking parchment and return to freezer. Store remaining eggs in fridge.
