Are you looking for an easy idea for an Easter desert today? Here is a really cute one I made a few years ago using Easter peeps. I love sunflowers so I chose the yellow peeps, but you can use any color for any flower.
Ingredients
1 box of cake mix (your choice)
1 tub of frosting (your choice) * (see below for a homemade recipe)
approximately 12-16 peeps depending on the size of your cake
approximately 1/2 bag of semi sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Prepare the cake according to the directions on the box. Once the cake is cooled frost it completely. When frosted add the peeps to the outer edge of the cake with the peeps facing outward. Lastly, add a layer of chocolate chips to form the seeds to the flower. Be sure to place with the tops facing upward.
Enjoy your beautiful flower when finished.

I am a wife, mom, and daughter. I have served in the United States Army, gone to college, and received a Batchelor's Degree in Criminology. I married my husband when he was on active duty in the United States Army so I have the unique knowledge of what it is like to be on both sides of a Military uniform. I have been a wife for a lot longer than when I was in the Army.
While we were stationed in Germany, my daughter, who is 23 years old now was born and I chose to put my career on hold to be a mom and eventually a homeschool mom.
The past 15 years have been wrought with many struggles for various reasons, but it is as a result of those struggles that this blog has come about.
As the years passed and the struggle kept coming, I would say to God, "I'm not sure why we have to go through all of this, but if we have to God, then allow my story to serve as a means of encouragement to others so all this pain isn't for nothing."
Well, the years passed but the struggles never went away. I feel now is the time God wants me to begin sharing my story. It is my prayer as I share my heart that it will serve as a healing opportunity for you, my readers. Know you are not alone. There are hope and encouragement that waits.
