cook's notes
If you don't like coconut, use green sugar sprinkles. You don't get the same "grass" effect as the coconut, but you might like the taste better. Another option is to pipe a "nest" of green icing to encircle the top and place a Peep in the center. Sprinkle with colored sprinkles for a finishing touch.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I experimented with the Marshmallow Peep Cupcakes recipe. I made a few changes. First, I used a larger size cupcake pan. Second, I used marshmallow egg swirlers for the egg shells. I just cut around the inside of the egg swirlers so the peeps would fit. This was easy and looks great. My grandkids just love this eggstra-special treat for Easter. Jan
