My kiddos seriously LOVE Peeps so any time I can come up with a recipe using them, I’m considered the best Mom ever. 😉 These chocolate dipped peeps are amazing! They give a whole new meaning to the treat “Peeps”. These are also great for neighborhood gifts or bake sales…just put them in a cute plastic bag and write a Happy Easter card. Enjoy…

Homemade Chocolate Peeps

Ingredients:

1 package Marshmallow Peeps Bunnies
6 Mini Marshmallows
1 cup Dark Cocoa Melting Chips
12 Lollipop Sticks

Directions:

Melt chocolate in microwave by heating for 30 seconds, then stirring and repeating until chocolate is melted and smooth.
Cut each mini marshmallow in half with kitchen shears to make bunny tails.
Insert stick in bottom of each bunny.
Prepare a cup with something of weight in the bottom (like dry beans or rice) to keep it from tipping over.
Dip and/or spoon chocolate over bunny to cover completely.
Tap stick gently over bowl to allow excess to drip off.
Insert bunny tail on back and place in cup.
Place cup in refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow chocolate to set.
