If I Knew You Were Coming, I’d've Baked a Peep Cake

The cake I baked for Easter wasn’t homemade, natural, organic, gluten free, sugar free, or even low fat.

 

Shamefully, I used a box of Better Crocker yellow cake mix to form two 8 inch round cakes, two packages of yellow Peeps, two tubs of chocolate icing and a bag of milk chocolate chips to create this sunflower Peep cake .  Nope, there was nothing healthy about it and it was damn good.  In fact, it was so good that I ate a slice for lunch the next day.

After I finished this cake, my oldest daughter suggested I pipe on some green icing to make a stem and a leaf on the side of the cake which was such a cute idea, but I was too lazy to mess with icing and a piping bag.  I’ll try that the next time I make this cute Peep cake.

Also, I think next time I make this cake, I’ll use white icing, white chocolate chips and pink or purple Peeps so the cake has a brighter springtime Easter flavor appearance.

You Can Pick Your Peeps

You can pick your Peeps.

And you can pick your nose.

But you can’t let your Peeps pick your nose.

Not Another Peep

Amy of Keeping Up with the Schultz Family introduced me to my new favorite Easter candy: Chocolate Peeps.

 

 

Now, I can’t get enough of these delicious heavenly chocolate covered clouds.

 

 

But, I need to put down the Peeps for a bit because I have a glucose test this morning.
