preview for Sopa-Peep-A Is The Ultimate Easter Dessert Hybrid

Hey there Easter heads! Thinking about what to do with all those extra Peeps you have lying around? I got you. This playful Easter mashup combines the classic fluffy, fried, golden sopapilla with a marshmallowy Peep center. Serve them hot and sprinkled with colored sanding sugar to complete the Easter look, and I promise—even Peeps haters won’t be able to resist.

The sopapilla, a fried pastry typically sprinkled with cinnamon sugar or honey, is a simple but delicious dessert with both Spanish and Native American origin. It’s everything that is good about fried dough—golden brown, fluffy, and melt-in-your mouth sweetness that will have you reaching for another before you’ve finished the first. The melty Peep center adds a perfect oozy, sweet center to an already mouthwatering dessert, creating a perfect dessert mashup that will outshine any Easter basket.

Tip: No waiting necessary here. I recommend eating these right away—they’re best served hot!
