On Monday, I shared a post about how you could use Peeps to create beautiful Easter and Spring themed centerpieces. If you missed my post, click here to read it now -- http://www.inspiredbysavannah.com/2013/03/peeps-are-not-just-for-eatingcheck-out.html. Today, I wanted to share more ways to use Peeps -- this time in fun and creative recipes. Below are just a sampling of sweet Peeps treats you can make with this marshmallow snack. I will be trying out each and every one in the coming weeks with the girls, and can't wait to surprise family and friends with our creations come Easter, when we get together for dinner. I told everyone I was bringing dessert, and that it would be Peeps themed. They have no idea what is in store for them. :-)
Mmm, peanut butter — perfect nest for a Peep!

So, have I got you excited about making some sweet Easter treats this year? I hope so. :-) While you are out this weekend picking up eggs and egg decorating supplies, along with Easter basket gifts, make sure you pick up a sampling of Peeps bunnies and chicks, so you can try out a few of the easy recipe above. Or, get create and turn a family favorite recipe into something fun by adding Peeps. See, they are not just for eating as a candy snack -- instead, they add life and fun to Easter and Spring themed desserts. :-) I can't wait to hear what you come up with, when you try and incorporate Peeps into your recipes.
And, stay tuned next week, when I will share cocktails, mocktails and other beverages that include Peeps. :-)
