Peeps Bird House S'mores on a Stick


Building a birdhouse might a little complicated of a task for children, but not with these Peeps Bird House S'mores on a Stick! This yummy recipe is simple enough that the kids can help, and delicious enough that they’ll want to. Most importantly, if they mess up and want to start over, clean up just takes a couple of chomps!



Peeps Bird House S'mores on a Stick

Graham Crackers (Honeymaid)
Yellow & Blue Peeps
Chocolate Cookie Frosting (Betty Crocker)
Pretzel Sticks
Decorative straws or Lollipop Sticks

We started out by cutting the graham crackers into a bird house shape using kitchen scissors.  Start cutting from the bottom side to the middle (where the lines are). Do the same with the other side.  Then start cutting from the middle to the top into a point. Do the same on the other side.  Make 2 for 1 pop.  You will need 2 Peeps for the inside like this....

Squeeze the chocolate cookie frosting on the insides of the graham cut outs.  Poke a straw or lollipop stick through 2 Peeps and then place them on the chocolate....

Make a hole on the bottom of the top grahams using a lollipop stick. It will pop right through without breaking anything. Break a pretzel stick in half and press it in the hole. It should stay without securing with frosting. We put Tootsie Rolls in the microwave for 7 seconds each and flattened them out. We cut 1 small Tootsie roll into 4 squares using kitchen scissors.  We attached them on the top using our frosting to look like little shingles. We made a hole on the front using our frosting. We cut a couple of the Peeps heads off and placed them on the hole (like little birdies peeking out). Squeeze chocolate on the other insides of the graham cut outs and place them on top. Let dry.
