If you want a fun breakfast on Easter morning before hunting for eggs, our Easter Hot Chocolate with Peeps is an adorable treat!

This white hot chocolate is thick and creamy. Food coloring turns it into a colorful drink topped with one of the most popular Easter candies, Peeps marshmallows!

We made pink hot chocolate, but you could just as easily make blue hot chocolate or yellow hot chocolate, too.

Use any color of Peeps that you would like. Yellow Peeps Chicks would be great on top of any hot chocolate color. There are so many different flavors for Easter time!

Our Peeps S’mores Dip is also a fun Easter treat!

If you love this marshmallow candy, be sure to see our faux Peep Easter gift card holder.
