Ingredient­s:

12 Peeps Marshmallo­w Bunnies

One frozen pound cake, thawed

One can vanilla frosting

12 push pop containers

Sprinkles

Pink, yellow, and green food coloring

3 plastic sandwich bags

Directions:

1. Start by assembling your push pop containers.

2. Add food coloring to your frosting. Divide your frosting equally into three bowls, and add a drop or two of color to each bowl, mixing well to combine.

3. Spoon your frosting into three sandwich bags.

4. Place your thawed pound cake onto a cutting board. Cut cake.

5. Using a push pop container as your cutter, cut out round pieces of pound cake.

6. Snip a bottom corner off each zipper bag of frosting, leaving approximat­ely a 1/4 inch hole in bottom corner of bag.

7. Squeeze a bit of frosting into the bottom of each of your push pop containers.

8. Place a circle of pound cake into each push pop, pressing onto the top of the frosting.

9. Squeeze frosting onto the top of each of your circles of pound cake in each container; repeat with another circle of pound cake and additional frosting.

10. You can place your Peeps Bunnies onto your push pop whole, though they fit better if you cut them in half. Top each push pop with a Peep ad garnish with sprinkles if desired.
