Eggceptional Edibles!
Easter is fast approaching and just about a million things come with Easter! I mean of course there are all the eggs (dozen, after dozen!)! There are the Easter baskets for those children filled with that grass that get's everywhere and those adorable toys. There is the candy, all that candy (drives me crazy!)! Then last but not least the main event the food! All the food! After those children finish running around for those eggs they want food! Food! Food! Food! (Don't children always want food though? Maybe it's just an excuse to eat ;D) There are tons of things to make whether they are Easter related or not. The fun of the holidays though is creating all those unique holiday oriented plates and dishes of endless food! Here is a list of eggsquisite edibles for everyone!
Eggsquisite Edibles!
- A very delicious treat that everyone will love is the moderately traditional Easter egg shaped rice crispy treats! You will require plastic eggs (optional), 3 Tablespoons of butter
or margarine, 4 cups of mini marshmallows or 10oz of regular (I prefer the mini), and 6 cups of Kelloggs Rice Krispies! If you are using the plastic eggs, wash em out real good and put a little bit of cooking spray inside. Melt the butter on low heat, add marshmallows and stir until completely melted, Add the cereal and stir until well covered in the gooey mixture! Let the mixture cool and portion (If you love colors like I do after portioning some out, use food dye and dye it Easter colors!) and then using buttery hands shape into Easter eggs and let sit! BAM! Adorable edible eggs! If you chose you can mix M&M's into the mixture or Cocoa Krispies!
Another adorable idea brought to you by my friends' mother is bunny cars!
- All you need is elongated snack cakes (Like Twinkies), Peeps Bunnies, Mini Pretzels, and Large Marshmallows cut in half! Cut a cube out of the top of the snack cake and place the half-mallows (ha!) 2 on each side of the snack cake (like a car!). Place the adorable bunny inside and place the pretzel upside down! BAM! Bunny Cars!
- A very simple treat is to make up a batch of chocolate chip cookies but instead of chocolate chips use M&M's Easter selection or Robin Eggs! I prefer Robin Eggs MMMM!!
- Now if you wanna do something creative with Peeps you can also bring a pot of water to boiling and place another pot on top with dipping chocolate (Or chocolate chips) and dips the peeps in! Let sit and devour! Delicious!
- Now for that Eggcellent Easter Dinner you created you can have some Bunny Bread
with it! You can use a home made dough or frozen bread dough! While
baking the dough balls after they start getting unfrozen take a pair of
scissors and snip twice on the top in the form of ears and then poke
twice on the face for the look of eyes!
