I have been getting a head start on my Spring Treats! Positive thinking will maybe bring the nice weather!. About 2-3 times a day I get a wild hair and I bake, a lot. Today, we did just that. We made chocolate covered pretzels, Peeps Rice Krispy Treats, chocolate peeps, Pink Tie Dye Cake, etc.

I found a really great recipe online to make Layered Peeps Rice Krispies, (Check it out here) That I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to try out, except…. well…. in our small town they don’t sell peeps any other color than Pink. So, we made Pink Peeps Rice Krispies!

Now, her recipe looks like its in a smaller loaf pan, and I was making them in a cake pan, so I had to improvise a bit. for every 3oz package of peeps, I put 1tbsp of butter. I used 5 packages of peeps to fill a baking pan. I wish, looking back, that I would have mixed some spring M&Ms in too, but there is

always next time!

Ingredients

5 3oz Packages of Peeps
5 TBSP Butter
7-8 Cups of Rice Krispies

Instructions

Grease a Cake Pan. I also sprayed my hands with cooking spray everytime I delt with the sticky Rice Krispies, it makes a huge difference!
I heated 1pkg of peeps to 1tbsp a butter at a time and put them in my pan. So, to begin, put 1 3 oz package of peeps in a microwave safe bowl with 1 tbsp of margarine and melt in microwave for 45 seconds.
Mix with 1 1/2 cups of Rice Krispies and pour into cake pan. Press firmly down. This will only cover about 1/4 of the pan, which is fine. We are doing this in increments.
Continue the above steps until you have filled your cake pan.
Let set in fridge
VOILA! 🙂
