Easter treats with peeps!

I made these super cute nests for my preschooler's little Easter party.

It was something he enjoyed helping with as well!

How to make your own:

Grab some Peeps, robin eggs, edible grass (Easter isle at Walmart, or you could color some coconut) and

the original Rice Krispies treat recipe.

Make the rice krispies according to the original recipe and press into muffin pans.

Hollow out the middle a bit and add edible grass, eggs and Peeps!

Easy as that!

Christmas Reindeer Chow

One of my favorite treats with some Christmas color.

Reindeer Chow (aka Puppy Chow when it's not Christmas time) is one of my favorite snacks and is so good you won't be able to stop eating it. I have made the traditional recipe and just added red and green M&M's. This is an easy and great idea to make up and hand out to friends and/or neighbors.

Here's the recipe:

1 stick of butter
1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
8 cups Crispix cereal
2 cups powdered sugar
Christmas M&M's

Melt butter, chocolate chips and peanut butter in the microwave. When melted, pour over Crispix; mix well. Put powdered sugar in large brown paper bag and add the Crispix. Shake until well coated. Add more powdered sugar if needed and shake some more. Add M&M's and you're done!
