These PEEPS Cupcakes are so colorful and so simple to make. We have been making all kinds of PEEPS recipes lately. I do not think my family can ever get enough of PEEPS ha ha! Have you had enough of me sharing PEEPS Ideas? lol.  I have shared  Chocolate Covered PEEPS and PEEPS S’Mores with you so far. I have a few more PEEPS Ideas on my list of things to make this next few weeks. I love surprising the kiddos with treats after school so I figure I will make them a few more PEEPS treats.

PEEPS Cupcakes Recipe 1

These PEEPS cupcakes are so easy like most of the cupcakes I have shared with you. I have yet to sign up for a cupcake class, ha ha. Maybe someday. Just grab your boxed cake mix and ingredients, PEEPS and homemade or canister frosting. You can also add on coordinating sprinkles too.

PEEPS Cupcakes Recipe 4
These PEEPS Cupcakes make me feel great especially since today is the first day of spring. So bright and colorful. The kiddos loved them of course. You could make these for Easter dessert, take them in to the office (I promise everyone will love them, who doesn’t love PEEPS?) I even enjoyed one with my evening coffee last night. These would also be great to have for a school classroom Easter party.
