These PEEPS S’mores are so delicious the kids polished off every peep in the house. I’ve mentioned before that PEEPS are a favorite in our family when I shared the Chocolate Covered PEEPS I made for the kids’ Easter baskets. I had bought a stash of colorful PEEPS for some Easter crafts, and planned to make the kids PEEPS S’mores as a special weekend treat. Big mistake — they ate them all! Fortunately, Remke and Kroger carry a wide assortment of colors so I can restock for crafts.
PEEPS S’Mores Easter Treats
PEEPS S’mores are incredibly simple — basically indoor microwave s’mores using marshmallow PEEPS instead of plain marshmallows. They come together quickly and make a gooey, fun afternoon treat. We tried them with both regular and chocolate graham crackers; I preferred the classic graham crackers while the kids loved the chocolate ones.
Ingredients
8-pack snack-size Hershey bars (break each bar in half)
32 graham cracker squares (2 1/4″ x 2 1/4″), regular or chocolate
32 marshmallow PEEPS
Directions
1. Break each snack-size Hershey bar in half and place a piece in the center of a graham cracker square.
2. Microwave the chocolate-topped graham cracker for about 20 seconds, or until the chocolate just begins to soften.
3. Place a Peep on a microwave-safe plate and heat for about 8 seconds, until it just begins to expand.
4. Immediately set the warmed Peep on top of the softened chocolate, then top with another graham cracker and press together gently.
5. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
If you’re planning Easter treats, consider trying some other easy ideas I’ve shared recently, such as Easter Chick Deviled Eggs, Nutter Butter Chicks, homemade Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs, Coconut Cream Eggs, Easter Egg Cake Bites, or Chocolate Covered PEEPS. I’ll be posting more recipes and DIY crafts for the Easter holiday in the coming weeks.
