You will need Peeps, Milk Chocolate Chips, lollipop sticks, shortening and mini marshmallows. I use a Wilton chocolate pro melting pot to keep my chocolate melted to the perfect temp but you can also microwave your chocolate chips, you’ll just have to work fast to get your marshmallows covered before the chocolate cools down.

When I melt my chocolate I add a tablespoon of shortening to the chocolate which will help your bunnies have a nice, glossy finish when they harden.

Dip your lollipop stick in the chocolate before sticking it in the Peep marshmallow bunny. This will help the stick stay in the marshmallow without it sliding off easily.

Once the chocolate hardens it will hold the marshmallow in place nicely.

Next, dip your Peep in the chocolate and tap the stick on the side of the pot to get the excess chocolate off.

Add the mini marshmallows to the back of your bunnies once the chocolate has started to set. If you do it too soon the marshmallow will slide off so make sure to let it start to set first. I usually wait a few minutes and then put the marshmallow on and hold in place until it sticks. Then stick them in a jar like this to let the chocolate harden.

  1. A friend of mine made a slew of those last year (exact same way as you) and some of them she dipped into melted white chocolate and used chocolate mini marshmallows as their tails. Totally adorable. She does the same thing with the chicks too.

    1. They were so quick and easy to make! I love the white chocolate idea too. I didn’t think about using chocolate mini marshmallows with white chocolate. That would be cute to make a mix of the two!

  2. This recipe is simply unsurpassed, at first, of course, I did not succeed, but later I practiced and now I get a real delicacy, I prepare it for playing on my favorite online game site – casinocastle.bet, because this is where I like to play and eat at the same time, and it’s really nice to play here!
