Chocolate Covered Peeps!

Here's an easy peasy Easter treat!
I'm not sure where I first saw this idea
or if just came up with it.  I made these
adorable chocolate covered peeps
for my hubby and sons for Easter.

I used lollipop sticks its not easy to get them into the 
peeps but if you kind of screw them in that seems 
to work easiest.
I used Wilton's dark melting chocolate
and melted it into a coffee mug instead
of a bowl so that the chocolate was
high enough to dip the peeps into. 
I also spooned the chocolate over 
the bunnies to make sure they were
really covered.
Once they were dipped I added sprinkles
and allowed them to harden on foil.

Here they are 2 to a package ready
for Easter!

P.S. I  just have to tell you I'm not a peeps 
fan unlike the rest of my family, but I just
had to taste one and it surprised me
how good it was...course how can you
go wrong with chocolate! LOL
