Easter Peep S’mores Two Ways
These Easter Peep S’mores are everything you love about s’mores—with a holiday twist. The Peeps add color, sweetness, and that irresistible crackly top when roasted. They're nostalgic, cheerful, and make a dessert table pop with pastel charm. Whether you go for the skillet version (great for sharing) or the traditional sandwich style (perfect for Easter baskets and after-dinner treats), you’re getting all the melty, toasty, chocolatey goodness of s’mores—with a playful spring upgrade
Servings: 8
Equipment
- 1 small cast iron skillet (6–8 inches)
- Oven or toaster oven
- Heatproof spatula or spoon
- oven
- Baking sheet
Ingredients
- 1 package of Peeps chicks, bunnies—any Easter shape!
- 1 sleeve of graham crackers
- 1 bag of Hershey’s Kisses or any meltable chocolate
Instructions
Skillet Peep S’mores
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Unwrap your Hershey’s Kisses and arrange them in a single layer in your cast iron skillet. You want to cover the bottom with chocolate.
- Arrange the Peeps in a single layer on top of the chocolate. You can squish them close together—they look cute that way!
- Bake in the preheated oven for 7–10 minutes, or until the Peeps are puffed and lightly golden on top. Watch closely around the 7-minute mark so they don’t over-toast.
- Serve immediately with graham crackers on the side for scooping and dipping.
Classic Peep S’mores
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line it with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
- Break graham crackers into squares and place half of them on the baking sheet. Top each with 1–2 Hershey’s Kisses (or a few chocolate pieces).
- Place one Peep on top of the chocolate on each cracker.
- Bake for 5–6 minutes, just until the Peeps start to puff and the chocolate is softened. Keep an eye on them—the sugar coating on Peeps can brown quickly!
- Remove from the oven, immediately top each s’more with another graham cracker square, and gently press to sandwich everything together.
- Let them cool slightly before serving—just enough so they’re warm and gooey, but not too hot to handle.
Notes
- Hosting Easter brunch? Prep the skillet in advance and pop it in the oven just before dessert is served.
- Want to package this up? Make mini sandwich-style s’mores and wrap them in wax paper to tuck into Easter baskets.
- Make it pretty: Add edible flower petals or pastel sprinkles on top before serving for a sweet spring vibe.
