Just Peep'ing in...

My sister sent me a recipe to try a couple weeks ago, and I saved it until closer to Easter. I finally made it this past weekend, having picked up a few packages of traditional yellow Peeps®.

See?


Sunflower Peeps Cake.

The cake was delicious - just your typical yellow cake with chocolate frosting. It was four layers high, and we each had one piece, but I gave away all the other slices to our neighbors. Philip was ecstatic to eat the Peep on my slice (I can't stand those - *shudder*!), as well as all the leftover ones I'd not needed for the cake. :-)







Inside the cake. I can't cut a straight layer to save my life, by the way.

I saw this on Yahoo the other day, right before Easter. I kind of wanted to make one, even though the idea of eating a Peep kind of makes me nauseous. I loved them as a kid but now... *shudder*

Everyone else who saw the cake was like, "Yay, PEEPS!" So I'm glad I still made it. :-)
