Did Someone Say Peeps?

Marshmallow peeps are so cute and come in such 

fun spring colors, but I have to admit that I 

haven't ever loved to eat them.  They are a hit

with the family so I buy them every year.

I saw these white chocolate dipped ones all

over the internet and since they looked so cute

I thought I'd give them a try.

Guess what?  A little dip in white chocolate really takes

the taste of marshmallow peeps over the top.

Yes, I really liked them.  I couldn't stop eating them.

Here they are presented in the baskets I have had for

my children for at least 20 years.  I have no idea where

I found these, but I have carefully protected them

over the years with their delicate wicker ears.

Talk about a fun and easy project to do with the kids.

My daughter and I whipped these up in just minutes.

White Chocolate Dipped Peeps

Melt 2-3 C. white chocolate discs in the microwave 

using a microwave safe dish and stirring every 30 seconds.

If you want to read my tutorial on melting chocolate in

the microwave click here.

Stir until smooth.  Use a kitchen shears to cut the peeps

apart.  Then holding them gently by the heads, dip their

bottoms in the melted white chocolate.  Scrape the excess

chocolate off the bottom and then sprinkle with desired

candy sprinkles or sugars.  Place on a piece of

parchment paper to dry.

They really like a little dressing up too.

Bag them up as little neighbor gifts.

Even if you are not a huge marshmallow peep fan give this a try.

They are cute and delish.

I will be posting these with
