Peeps Nests – the cutest Easter treat! White chocolate covered pretzels with Peeps and candy eggs on top. No bake and perfect for school Easter parties!
I am in full-on Easter mode right now.
I wasn’t.
Then this past weekend the Army post we live on had their Easter event and I mainly showed up because they promised an ice skating rink (and lied!) but after holding ALL THE CUTE BUNNIES at the petting zoo, I’m pretty excited to have the Easter Bunny visit us.
Plus, can we all agree that Easter has the best holiday candy? Cadbury eggs, Cadbury mini eggs, Cadbury white mini eggs…
Omg.
Peeps Nests Recipe!
Anyway, this is the treat I was planning on sharing on Monday but someone destroyed the bag of pretzels and the eggs.
And yes, it was the husky. She is the worst.
Better late than never though, right?
I love these Peeps Nests so much.
They are basically white chocolate-covered pretzels with a Peeps chick on top and then you can put your favorite egg-shaped candy on the nest. They’re so easy, no baking required, and even the kiddos can help out with them!
I mean, how cute are they?!
Want more easy and cute Easter treats?
This Easter Marshmallow Bark is so cute and and no bake and these super adorable Bunny Butt Pancakes would be perfect for Easter breakfast! And these Meringue Nests with Chocolate Easter Eggs are gorgeous and surprisingly simple.
If you want cupcakes, my chocolate Easter Nest Cupcakes are always really easy to decorate and these Spring Chick Cupcakes are too stinkin’ adorable.
