{I received some complimentary product from PEEPS & COMPANY to create some fun treats to share with you guys. I hope you enjoy these Tombstone pudding cups – and stay tuned for more creative ideas coming soon!}
I love Halloween. Ever since I was a little girl I’ve loved dressing up. But I’m more of a “cute and fun” kind of Halloween person – not the gore and horror stuff. I get scared even in the little kid haunted houses and corn mazes. Truth. I usually go all out for every holiday – Halloween is definitely one of my more over-the-top ones. But this year, I didn’t get to do my normal decoration and month of treats for the kids. Last month I was in the hospital for a week, and then this month I had an accident and broke my nose, split my lip in 3 places, and got a pretty good concussion. {I definitely looked ready for Halloween after that happened, lol.} And all of that is why I haven’t been posting much lately. Don’t worry – I’m fine. And I’ll have a post up this weekend to let you all know exactly what’s been going on. But – I’m feeling much better, back at work, and excited to at least do a few fun projects before Halloween! I’m sharing one here that’s so easy to put together, but the kids will totally love. And it features one of everyone’s favorite candy – PEEPS! Yep, PEEPS aren’t just for Easter, they have tons of really fun products all year.
Ok, to get started, you need to gather up some simple supplies. Chocolate pudding cups, chocolate sandwich cookies, Halloween candy, and most important – PEEPS new Tombstones.
Aren’t these super fun? Here’s a little info about them… NEW PEEPS® Tombstones: These fun and frightening PEEPS® marshmallow shapes are sure to be gobbled up this fall. The scary grave markers include silly epitaphs that will grab fans’ attention. The new shape is perfect for recipes and crafting spooky décor for Halloween festivities! SRP: $1.49 – $1.79 for a nine count package. I had originally planned to do a really elaborate gingerbread house with a graveyard – there are also PEEPS marshmallow ghosts and spooky pumpkins too. So many fun options you could make!
Now just put together your PEEPS pudding treats! Start with a chocolate pudding cup. Add some crushed up cookies on top, like you were making a “dirt and worms” style treat. Then to make them spooky and special, top with the fun PEEPS Tombstones! Then grab spoons and enjoy. I’m a crazy-busy mom, but love things like this – where just a few extra minutes can make a day a little more special :)
