44 Awesome Peeps Crafts and Recipes

What would Easter be without Peeps goodies? They're so nostalgic for me, I can hardly stand it. So cute, so fun. Nuff said. Today I gathered 44 awesome things to do with Peeps this Easter. Before I share the good-ness, I want to tell you about the Peeps #fail that I had. I wanted to make Peeps freezer pops, so I bought some of those cool push up cake pop holders. No clue that they had holes in them, so that "should" have been my warning to give up. Nope. I decided to use some whipped topping to try to block up the holes by setting by freezing. Seemed like a great plan! So, I proceeded to press my cute Peeps into the frozen cream and added juice.  Wouldn't that be so cute? A freezer pop with a Peeps in the center? Yeah. No.  What a train wreck. That doesn't work out. The coloring comes off them and some of them became uprooted. What a horror show. Well, without further ado, ready for some real AWESOME thing to do with Peeps for Easter? Here we go...

44 Awesome "Peep-tastic" things to make with #Peeps for #Easter

Side note: Did you know that Yankee Candle has a Marshmallow Chicks Peeps candle? I totally need that! Moving on... here is a big old list of sweet creations from the web. From treats to crafts, the possibilities are endless!

  10. These are some great sweet treats, but I see you are missing the Peepas and garlic, and the Peepza! Seriously, you know those looked awesome...I say you add them in.

    1. Ah man, can't believe I'm such a slacker! You know if I didn't save the collage with "44" on it , I would totally add them. LOL!

  11. I love all of the awesome Peeps creations! My son just went through the links with me and we are going to try the Peep-za Dessert Pizza recipe this weekend.

  12. I'm not a huge peep fan, but my kids definitely are. I might make those cookies just for me - they can have the real ones!

  13. We love Peeps in our house. They usually don't stick around long enough for me to get creative with them since the kids eat them right up!

  14. For the love of Peeps, wowza!! Great recipes, thanks for the awesome round up!
    🙂

  15. Aren't they so cheery?! I actually did a Peeps nest recipe and Easy Peeps Easter Decor DIY on my blog too!

  16. Wow!! This is awesome! I love desserts and add peeps and I am sold! I may need a diet after this post!

  17. Must. Eat. ALL THE PEEPS!! I just bought a ton of Peeps getting ready for Easter, I am going to try as many of these recipes as I can!

  18. Wow! What cute ideas for Peeps. My husband is sitting beside me on the couch, and he just said, "All those things look great." Even though he's 41, he's a huge Peeps fan. Pinned.

    1. That is so funny Susanna, my dad who is in his 50 has been known to wolf down a bag or two... solo!

  19. Love these ideas. I think my favorite is the Peeps sunflower with the chocolate chips. Such a cute idea. I'm not a big Peeps eater, but I sure love crafting with them.

  20. These peeps treats are so cute and they look so delicious! They seem to be a popular item for easter treats

  21. Holy mackerel! That's a lot of things to do with Peeps! All so colorful and creative! I'd hate to eat them!

    1. See, that's what I was saying too! They look too pretty, if you cook them they won't anymore!

      1. I think that just means that you have to buy some for cooking and creating with and then a whole bunch to just eat! 😉

  22. I did see that Yankee Candle made a Peeps scent. I love Yankee Candles but I really can't help but think of soft and squishy peeps melting away when I think about it, LOL.

  23. I love peeps. I buy them every Easter. I put peanut butter on mine and eat it just like that. But your treats are precious.

  24. I think I just died and went to PEEPS heaven! PEEPS are my absolutely favorite treat, especially frozen. These are all such fun ideas for Spring time. I am going to go through these with my daughter later!

  25. Dawn,
    Thank you for sharing my Peeps Whipped Cream and Peeps Truffle Pie! I hear you on the disasters. Both of my Peeps recipes went through a few fails before I got them right. The first version of the whipped cream was more like Peeps jello, and not in a good way!

    1. It's my pleasure! I love your Peeps Pie, it looks decadent... and the colors you chose are so pretty. It really "pops" 😉

      Ooh yikes, glad I'm not the only one creating disastrous things in the kitchen.. haha!

      1. There are no great successes without great failure. I don't know who originally said that.

          1. Thanks my dear 😉 Love your Peeps Cake, thanks for letting me include it in my roundy roundup!

  26. Is it wrong that I want one of each? I love Peeps and I have to say that I remember the "old days" when they would come out only at Easter time and I am so happy they are out all year round now for all the holidays!!

    1. No way could that ever be wrong. It's all right! I remember that too! Lovin the year round Peeps-action.. and the new flavors they have now. Party Cake? Yes please!
