Easter is a lot more fun when you put Peeps in it #Recipe and #Craft Ideas

March 24, 2014 By Melanie Roberts 30 Comments

Easter is a lot more fun when you put Peeps in it #Recipe Ideas

Peeps have been a Easter Tradition for many, many years and yet, each year I find people that have never tried peeps. Can that be even possible? I’m addicted to the sweet little sugary chicks and now there are so many different Peeps to choose from. I guarantee you there is a Peeps for you out there.

Peeps come in Party Cake Flavor, covered in chocolate, as chicks and bunnies or even in a bite-size combination of chocolate and marshmallow as well as on a stick for a fun Easter décor. All those different peeps gave me an idea to set out and find some fun Peeps recipe ideas just in time for Easter.

Easter is a lot more fun when you put Peeps in it #Recipe Ideas

My kids love brownies, so I made some simple brownie bites and added a nice Cool Whip cushion to sit our Peeps on, that was a fun dessert that was easy to make and the kids loved it and asked for more. In case you like to make it for your family, it was really simple.

You need and how to make it:

  • Your favorite brownie Mix ~ Make according to the package directions
  • Cool Whip or your favorite Whip topping
  • Your favorite Peeps

Use a glass to cut out circles of your finished brownie, to get them round, something different and special, add your whip cream and nestle a Peeps on top… Voila.. all done… Kids will love it, your guest will love it and you will love how easy it was to make.

    I couldn’t agree more. Peeps make Easter so much fun, and they are perfect for jazzing up cakes and cupcakes.
