How to Make Peeps from Scratch

Posted by Erin Zimmer, April 9, 2009

I don't even like Peeps. Or marshmallows in general. But when it's Peeps Week on Serious Eats, you make sacrifices. Like a couple hours of time and never being able to say again "Ha! I've never made Peeps from scratch before. That's crazy talk!"

But, it was kind of special watching Peep placenta ooze from the pastry bag as their little heads formed. With the help of Brownie of Blondie and Brownie, I embraced this recipe, originally found in Martha Stewart Living.
