If you want to bring the magic of Peeps into your own kitchen, try these DIY cactus Peeps. They’re a ridiculously cute on twist on the traditional shapes. Put them in a pot and voila! you have the perfect Easter basket addition (that doubles as a table setting.)

Best of all — you never have to feel guilty about biting those marshmallow chicks’ heads off again

Instructions:

1. Mix gelatin with four tablespoons cool water and mix to combine. Set aside.

2. Separate four egg whites and whisk in a mixer until soft peaks form.

3. Combine corn syrup, sugar and water in a sauce pan and bring to 235 degrees Fahrenheit using a candy thermometer. Once temperature is reached, remove from heat, add gelatin and quickly mix together. Then slowly pour the mixture into the egg whites with the mixer on medium speed.

4. Add vanilla and mix until stiff. Pour a few drops of food coloring into the mixture and mix until even. A few drops go a long way!

5. Using a pastry bag or plastic bag with a corner cut off, spoon the mixture in and then pipe onto a sheet of parchment covered in powdered sugar. Create your cactus shapes!

6. Let your cactus Peeps set overnight in a cool, dry place.

7. Once dry, brush with water and then sprinkle edible glitter on top.

Pro Tip: The mixture will start to harden if you turn the mixer off, so keep it going while you are piping your Peeps.
