Easter Bunny Reese’s Race Cars Recipe


  • Author: Ella
  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 race cars 1x

Description

Create adorable and fun Easter Bunny Reese’s Race Cars with simple ingredients. These treat cars are perfect for kids and festive occasions, combining the rich taste of mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups with crunchy pretzels and colorful candy coating.


Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 12 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

Wheels

  • 24 chocolate-covered pretzels

Decoration

  • 24 candy eyes
  • 1 cup colorful candy coating, melted
  • 1/4 cup royal icing or melted chocolate (for assembly)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Workspace: Clear the counter and gather all ingredients to ensure an organized assembly process.
  2. Place the Base: Position each mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup upside down to serve as the foundation of each race car.
  3. Attach the Wheels: Using royal icing or melted chocolate as glue, attach two chocolate-covered pretzels to each side of the Reese’s to form the wheels of the race car.
  4. Add the Eyes: Secure one candy eye on top of each Reese’s with a small dab of the icing or melted chocolate for a playful bunny look.
  5. Decorate with Candy Coating: Drizzle or dip the assembled race cars in melted colorful candy coating to add vibrant decoration and extra sweetness.
  6. Set to Harden: Allow the Easter Bunny Reese’s Race Cars to set at room temperature for 15-30 minutes until the candy coating and assembly glue harden completely before serving.

Notes

  • Use royal icing or melted chocolate as sturdy glue to keep the pretzels and candy eyes firmly attached.
  • Choose colorful candy coatings to match your Easter theme for more festive treats.
  • These treats are best enjoyed the same day but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Ensure pretzels are fully coated in chocolate for extra sweetness and crunch.
  • Supervise children during assembly, especially when handling melted candy coating.
