INGREDIENTS

  • Colorful Sprinkles

  • Duck or Bunny Peeps
  • Nestles Milk Premium White Chocolate Morsels

  • Shortening like Crisco (optional)
  • MATERIALS

  • Small dishes for sprinkles
  • Wax paper or parchment paper
  • Small Microwave Safe Bowl or Wilton Chocolate Melter
  • Spatula or wooden spoon to mix chocolate as it is melting
  • Small spoon or silicone brush

  • STEPS

    1. Use a chocolate melter if you have one or you can melt chocolate in microwave safe container. Since microwaves vary, you will have to adjust the time to your microwave. Start with 30 seconds, stir well with wooden spoon, add 15 seconds as needed. Heat until just melted. Chocolate should be warm not hot. Chocolate scorches very easily and will taste burnt if heated too long.
    2. While chocolate is melting, separate ducks carefully. They will reform as they sit there if you smash them while separating.
    3. Pour sprinkles into shallow dish.

    4. Spoon, brush or dip peep into chocolate until the bottom is covered. If you use a spoon or brush you don't have to have chocolate on the bottom.
    5. If chocolate starts to thicken, add a teaspoon of Crisco or shortening to the chocolate and mix thouroughly.
    6. Place duck into sprinkles and rotate so all sides are covered by sprinkles where ever there is chocolate.
    7. Let set and harden. For quicker results and a harder coat, place in refrigerator for 30 min.

    TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS

  • We liked using a silicont brush for a smooth edge and minimal chocolate on the bottom of the duck.
  • We found the sprinkles and treats at WalMart.
  • Bag a few in a clear cello bag and tie with Easter colored ribbons for a cute party favor.
