Marshmallows That Are Better Than Peeps
You either love or you hate Peeps. They are just one of those foods. These are the marshmallows shaped as chicks that are covered in colored sugar and only exist at one time of the year, Easter. People do funny things with Peeps, for example, the Medici restaurant on 57th Street is now selling a Peeps latte. Others will stock up on their Peeps supplies for the inevitable end of the Peeps season, just like bears getting ready for hibernation.

Directions:
1. Melt the chocolate using a double boiler and let it cool a little.
2. Dip the tip of each marshmallow in the melted chocolate and make them stand, chocolate covered parts will look up.
3. Wait 2 minutes and then dip them into sprinkles.

4. Chill for 15 minutes, or until hard, and serve. Or, put them on a stick and eat them like cake pops!
