Looking back over my Easter recipes and found this. Too cute! Now, to run out and get Peeps. I love how you put the colors together to form a ball instead of just doing different colored balls.

March 31, 2019 at 10:17 pmThis almost looks like a take on Fiddle Faddle. I would definitely try this with marshmallow fluff.

March 25, 2019 at 6:58 amI saw in the one pic that the butter has a “flavor protect wrapper”. What makes it that? Just curious.

I don’t eat marshmallows because of the gelatin content, but I bet I could make a version of these with marshmallow fluff (doesn’t have gelatin). Thanks for the idea!
March 16, 2019 at 10:45 amI bet just using melted chocolate would be good, too, and hold it together after it dries.
