Hatching a Peep from a chocolate egg

Posted Apr 7th 2006 6:24PM by Sarah J. Gim

peeps in chocolate eggs More Peeps madness, y'all. Last year, the company that makes Peeps debuted a chocolate egg with a marshmallow peep hiding inside. This year, they have the same sort of thing, but the chocolate egg part is made with crispy rice -- like a Nestle Crunch-wrapped Peep. Could it get any better?!?! Yeah, I thought so.

Of course, this just opened the door for more Peeps creativity. The SF Chronicle has suggested you crack open the chocolate egg to create two separate halves, put the pieces back together, stick it in the microwave, and watch the marshmallow Peep inside expand and hatch out of the chocolate egg. I guess it's kind of a molten chocolate marshmallow brulee.

Someone stop the Peeps madness!

No, really. Please.

I thought it was pretty interesting that Williams-Sonoma had a brandless "Marshmallow Chicks Kit," that they sell online only with a soft, pastel, nice and classy photo of a girl making her chicks - very Williams-Sonoma-esque. But here's another Peeps kit in a loud, colorful box that actually screams "Peeps!" with a coupon for $1.00 off your next purchase of real Peeps (in case you just can't figure out how to make them with the kit?), and the option to purchase extra molds and colored sugar for different holidays.

It's $26.

We're mildly obsessed with marshmallow Peeps here at Slashfood. Something about the nuclear power plant waste colors, the sparkly sugar on the outside, the fluffy air of nothingness inside that can either explode or actually be made into a brulee in your microwave...if you're into that sort of stuff.

If you want to be the ultimate Peeps fan, you should make them at home. Williams-Sonoma has a kit for $24 for making marshmallow chicks at home, complete with mold, marshmallow mix, and decorating sugar. You know, so you can make something...and then blow it up, just in time for the Easter basket!
