Ahh Peeps. Nothing marks the Easter season like these bunny- and chick-shaped marshmallows. But after stuffing your face with these traditional treats on Easter morning, you start to wonder what you're going to do with the boxes upon boxes of Peeps the Easter bunny left behind. If you're like me, you can spend hours watching them explode in the microwave. But, if you'd rather put the treats more appetizing use, there are some easy ways to use leftover Peeps that'll give second life to your bunnies and chicks before they go stale.

Because, let's be honest, there's nothing worse than seeing perfectly good candy go to waste. Especially if the Easter Bunny (i.e. your mom, dad, or you if you're a parent) put so much through and care into creating a delicious Easter basket. But you can only eat so many of those marshmallows before you feel like you're going to turn into one.

And if you've been busy baking for your Easter celebration, the good news is that most leftover Peeps recipes don't require a while lot of work or even ingredients. So if you're hoping to put those Peeps to tastier use, try whipping up one of these mouthwatering day after Easter desserts.
