Ingredients for Marshmallow Peeps Pops
- 1 package Marshmallow Peeps (bunnies or chicks)
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate or candy melts (assorted pastel colors)
- Lollipop sticks
- Assorted sprinkles and edible glitter (for decoration)
- Jellybeans or mini eggs (optional, for presentation)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Peeps and Sticks
- Carefully insert a lollipop stick into the bottom of each Peep, ensuring it’s secure but not poking through the top.
2️⃣ Melt the Chocolate Coating
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate or candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Add a few drops of food coloring if desired for pastel shades.
3️⃣ Dip the Peeps
- Hold each Peep by the stick and dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Gently tap off any excess chocolate.
4️⃣ Decorate the Pops
- While the chocolate coating is still wet, sprinkle with decorations like sprinkles, edible glitter, or candy pearls. Get creative with different patterns!
5️⃣ Let Them Set
- Place the decorated Peeps Pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet and allow the coating to harden at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
6️⃣ Display and Serve
- Arrange the pops in a jar, vase, or foam block for a bouquet-style display. Add jellybeans or mini eggs at the base for extra flair.
Tips for Perfect Marshmallow Peeps Pops
🐰 Use Fresh Peeps
Fresh Peeps are easier to work with and less likely to crumble when inserting the sticks.
🎨 Experiment with Coatings
Try using dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate for a different flavor.
