Watch out, Peeps aren’t just for Easter anymore. Did you know that they now make Peeps for all sorts of occasions, including Peep hearts for Valentine’s Day? Think of the possibilities!
Whether you are looking for yummy Peeps recipes or unique Valentine’s Day treats, today’s recipe–Valentine’s Peep Pops–is sure to please (and fun to say!). These Peep pops are fun and festive, and they don’t require a lot of work to put together. Simply dip the hearts in chocolate, let cool and decorate. The hardest part is just having enough patience not to eat them all right away!
Once you make these Valentine’s Peeps Pops, you’ll need a way to display or arrange them. While you could just set them out on a platter, why not get creative? You could also arrange them in a vase to look like flowers. It would be just as easy, but it would really take your Valentine’s Day treats up a notch.
Of course, you could just keep them all at home and eat them all yourself with your kids. No one would blame you, and don’t worry, I won’t tell.
This Valentine’s Day, when all the other mothers are bringing frosted sugar cookies to the class party, do something unique, different and special. Make these Valentine’s Peeps Pops, and you’re sure to be the star of the show. The kids will love them!
