Homemade Easter Treats: Marshmallow Chicks

Better Than Store-Bought

Marshmallow Peeps are an Easter staple, but there are plenty of people who prefer to craft with the gummy globs rather than eat them. Let's face it: store-bought Peeps don't really taste that good.

This recipe shows you how to make your own marshmallow sweets that are much more palatable.

Be prepared to make a sticky (but fun) mess. And don't fret if your chicks turn out looking more like sea monsters!  The mallow is a difficult medium.
