Peeps Bird Nest Easter Treat

Create a fun Easter Peeps treat that all ages will love!

Peeps in a Nest Easter Treat - Need a fun hands on Easter treat? Have your kids help you made these Peeps in a Bird Nest with chocolate and sprinkles. They will disappear quickly!

I was at the store this morning buying Easter candy for another recipe and these Peeps just called out to me. I never thought that they were very good and decided that I needed to make them more appetizing! I ended up with these marshmallow birds in a nest of sprinkles!!!

You need some original Peeps, chocolate chips, and sprinkles.

Dip a Peep in the melted chocolate and then dip in the sprinkles. Set on some wax paper until it hardens.

What a quick and yummy treat. They were gone about five minutes after the kids got home.

This one turned out a little funky because I dipped it sideways! LOL!

Cheep, cheep!
