Supplies

1 pkg. (8 ct.) PEEPS® Marshmallow Pumpkins
1 pkg. (9 ct.) PEEPS® Marshmallow Ghosts
1 pkg. (8 ct.) PEEPS® Chocolate Mousse Flavored  Marshmallow Cats
1 wrought-iron ornamental tree ?(an interesting tree branch may be substituted)
12 oz. milk or dark melting chocolate
1.75 oz. jar decorating sprinkles
1 drinking straw
1 pair of scissors
1 spool of ribbon

Instructions

1. Melt chocolate according to manufacturer’s directions.
2. Transfer chocolate to bowl for dipping.
3. Let cool until comfortable to the touch and slightly thicker than when first melted. This helps the chocolate “cling” to the PEEPS® marshmallow shapes.
4. Dip one half of several PEEPS® marshmallow shapes into the chocolate. Add sprinkles if desired and set on a tray lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before placing on tree.
5. Using the drinking straw, punch a hole through the top of each PEEPS® marshmallow shape (about 1/4” from top).
6. Insert a length of ribbon through the hole of each PEEPS® marshmallow shape and tie it to one of the tree branches.

Makes:1 spooky PEEPS® tree
