Description

Create fun and festive Easter Bunny Reese’s Race Cars with this simple and delightful no-bake recipe. Using mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups as the car base, chocolate-covered pretzels for wheels, and candy eyes for a playful touch, these treats are perfect for Easter parties or kids’ snacks. The colorful candy coating adds a decorative finish, making these sweet race cars both adorable and delicious.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 12 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
  • 24 chocolate-covered pretzels
  • 24 candy eyes
  • 1 cup colorful candy coating, melted
  • 1/4 cup royal icing or melted chocolate (for assembly)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Workspace. Clear your counter space and gather all the ingredients to ensure a smooth assembly process.
  2. Base Setup. Place each mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup upside down on the work surface to serve as the base of each race car.
  3. Attach Wheels. Use royal icing or melted chocolate as an adhesive to attach two chocolate-covered pretzels on each side of the Reese’s base, forming the wheels of the car.
  4. Add Eyes. Secure candy eyes on top of each Reese’s using a dab of royal icing or melted chocolate to create the bunny’s eyes on the race cars.
  5. Decorate with Candy Coating. Drizzle or dip the assembled race cars in melted colorful candy coating to add a bright and festive touch.
  6. Set to Harden. Allow the race cars to cool and set at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before serving to ensure everything is firmly in place.

Notes

  • Make sure the royal icing or melted chocolate is slightly cooled before assembly to avoid melting the candy coating.
  • These treats are best served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
  • For added creativity, consider using different colored candy coatings or additional edible decorations.
  • Handle the candy eyes gently to prevent smudging or damage.
  • If you want firmer wheels, allow the pretzels to dry completely before assembly.
