Anyone who knows me knows I love peeps! You can visit the peeps website here:
So here is a recipe using one of my favorite "foods"
Easter Peeps Cupcakes
1 cake mix (or scratch cake recipe)
white frosting
grated coconut, colored with green food coloring
Marshmallow Peeps® (yellow, pink, white, blue or lavender)
jelly beans
Bake cupcakes according to directions. Let cool and frost with white frosting.
Sprinkle colored coconut on top of each frosted cupcakes and place a Peep® in the center. Add a few jelly beans around the Peeps®, so they look like eggs.If you choose not to use coconut you may pipe a "nest" of green icing around the top of each cupcake and place a Peep® in the center. Sprinkle with colored sprinkles for a festive ending. How to Tint Coconut Place an amount of coconut into a bowl. Add a few drops of food coloring and mix well. Continue until desired color is reached. Be sure it is mixed well and be cautious as food color is concentrated.
