Peeps Easter S’mores Recipe

Introduction

Celebrate Easter with a fun and colorful twist on classic s’mores using Peeps marshmallows. This simple recipe brings together the sweet crunch of graham crackers, melty chocolate, and festive Peeps for a delightful treat everyone will enjoy.

A tall stack of six layers of golden-brown graham crackers alternates with layers of colorful, melted marshmallows in pink, white, yellow, and blue, along with drippy, glossy brown chocolate. Each marshmallow layer oozes between the graham crackers, with some chocolate flowing over the sides, creating a messy and inviting texture. The stack sits on a plain white plate, placed on a white marbled surface, with a blurred white plate and pastel-colored marshmallow bags in the background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 18 graham cracker halves
  • 1 Hershey’s candy bar
  • 9 Peeps (pink, blue, yellow)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to the broil setting. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange 9 graham cracker halves evenly on the sheet.
  2. Step 2: Break the Hershey’s candy bar into small pieces and place one piece on each graham cracker half. Top each with one Peep.
  3. Step 3: Place the baking sheet in the oven under the broiler. Watch closely for about 2 minutes, or until the Peeps begin to lightly brown and puff up.
  4. Step 4: Remove the tray from the oven and quickly place the remaining graham cracker halves on top of each Peep-covered base. Press gently to form sandwiches.

Tips & Variations

  • Use different colored Peeps to make this treat even more festive and fun.
  • For extra gooey s’mores, add a second layer of chocolate or try different chocolate varieties like milk, dark, or white chocolate.
  • Keep a close eye when broiling, as Peeps can brown quickly and may burn if left too long.

Storage

These Peeps Easter s’mores are best enjoyed fresh and warm. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day. To reheat, warm them briefly in a microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften the marshmallow again.

How to Serve

A tall stack of six layers of crispy light brown graham crackers is arranged on a white plate with soft edges, placed on a white marbled surface. Between each cracker layer, there are thick, melted marshmallows in bright blue, pink, white, and yellow colors, with gooey chocolate spread unevenly, oozing out and dripping down the sides. The marshmallows have a fluffy texture, some parts are melting and blending with the rich, glossy dark brown chocolate that contrasts the light crackers and colorful marshmallows.

FAQs

Can I make these s’mores without a broiler?

Yes, you can use a microwave to melt the chocolate and soften the Peeps by heating each s’more for about 15-20 seconds, but the broiler offers a nice toasted effect.

What if I can’t find Peeps in different colors?

Plain white marshmallows work well as a substitute, though you will miss the colorful Easter look. You can also decorate finished s’mores with sprinkles for a festive touch.
