Ingredients

Scale

Car Components

  • 12 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
  • 24 chocolate-covered pretzels
  • 24 candy eyes

Adhesives and Coating

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

Instructions

  1. Prepare your workspace: Clear your counter and gather all ingredients and tools needed for assembly to streamline the process.
  2. Create the car base: Place each mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup upside down to serve as the base of the race car.
  3. Attach wheels: Using royal icing or melted chocolate as glue, attach two chocolate-covered pretzels on each side of the Reese’s cup to serve as wheels.
  4. Add eyes: Securely place candy eyes on top of each Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup using icing to create the bunny face.
  5. Decorate: Drizzle or dip the assembled race cars in melted colorful candy coating to add a festive and vibrant touch.
  6. Set: Allow the completed race cars to set at room temperature for 15-30 minutes so the coating and icing firm up before serving.

Notes

  • Use royal icing or melted chocolate carefully as glue to ensure wheels and eyes stay secure.
  • Allow enough time for the candy coating to fully set for best presentation and handling.
  • Perfect for a fun Easter party activity with kids, enhancing creativity and hands-on fun.
  • Store these treats in a cool, dry place to prevent melting or stickiness.
  • For a chocolate-free alternative, substitute with allergy-friendly candy coatings and pretzels.
