It’s that time of year, time for the happy, sugary iconic Easter PEEPS to make their appearance.
It’s no secret that I love PEEPS and am always looking for fun ways to make them even sweeter. One of my favorite ways to quickly make unique treats using PEEPS is to dip them in chocolate and cover them in sprinkles. These chocolate dipped Easter PEEPS are a slightly different spin on last year’s chocolate covered PEEPS pops.
Here is what you need to make your own Chocolate Dipped Easter Peeps…
Super simple – your favorite chocolate coating, PEEPS and sprinkles. That’s it! You’ll also want some wax paper.
Melt your chocolate according to package directions. Dip your PEEP into your chocolate…
Make sure to let the excess chocolate drip off before heading to your sprinkles.
Once the excess chocolate has dripped off, dip your PEEP into your sprinkles.
That’s it. SO easy! Mix and match your sprinkles and create some fun spring color combos.
Oh how I love the fresh spring colors!
If bunnies are more your style…
Add a cellophane bag and some ribbon and you have the perfect party favor, classmate treat or Easter basket filler.

These are adorable! A plate of these will get center-stage at my Easter table this year. I might even wrap some in colored cellophane and place one beside each plate.
