Ingredients
- 1 (13.25 ounce each) box chocolate cake mix store-bought or home-made
- 1 (16 ounce each) tub chocolate frosting
- 2 to 3 packages marshmallow PEEPS 9-inch cake uses 20 peeps, yellow
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- ⅛ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Frost cake with chocolate frosting.
- Take a strip of 5 Marshmallow peeps and gently flex it into a semi-circle shape, being careful not to separate them. Place them gently around the edge of the cake, facing inwards. Their tails will hang over the edge of the cake.
- Do this until you have a full circle of Peeps. If you need to, you can carefully trim a sliver off of both sides of a strip of Peeps, so that they’ll stick together better.
- Take the regular-sized chocolate chips and place them in rows inside the circle formed by the Peeps. Make 4 or 5 complete circular rows of regular-sized chocolate chips.
- Take the mini chocolate chips and place them in rows inside the circle formed by the regular-sized chocolate chips. Fill in any open spots with mini chocolate chips, as needed.
Notes
- A nine-inch cake will use 20 Marshmallow Peeps, but it’s good to have extras, just in case!

- Ensure the cake is completely cooled before frosting.
- Use a thick frosting so it will hold the peeps in place.
- Don't separate the peeps, keep them attached to one another and arrange them around the cake with their little tails hanging over the edge of the cake. The edges can be separated if needed.
- Use the larger chocolate chips for the outside circle of the cake face. Then arrange the small chocolate chips on the inside of the cake.
