Peep Treats

Another treat for school.  The little one and I made these for her class for Easter!  It was MESSY but so easy and fast!

Want to make them???  Head over to The Crafting Chicks for the recipes and some printables!

Anyway…here is how ours turned out!  I molded the nests…the little tried, but it proved to a bit more than she could handle.  So I molded and she placed the peeps and eggs!

They were a hit!  And quite yummy!  I am not a fan of Peeps myself, but the marshmallow-chow mein noodles combo was quite nice!

A Baker I Am Not

I had tossed the idea of making cake pops for my daughter’s school around and around and around…Just couldn’t bring myself to do it.  Those things are a TON of work!  But seeing how this is her first Valentine’s Day in “real” school, I wanted to do something…especially since the crazy food rules being adopted in so many schools have not impacted us yet!  So, instead of cake pops, I made marshmallow pops!  52 marshmallow pops…one for each student in the school [and NO, that’s not just in her class!].

Getting the pops ready…sticking the sticks in with some white chocolate “glue”

Dipping one in the pink chocolate…it’s a slow process.  You have to let the excess chocolate drip off, all the while keeping things smooth.  Then you have to let them set up a bit before decorating.

Close-up of one of the pops…I think it’s a little RETRO!

View of all the completed pops!  So pretty and LOVEly!

And individually packed!

I sure hope she loves them!  And I sure hope she remembers all these crazy things I do for her!
