Ingredients
- Twinkies
- Peeps Marshmallow Bunnies
- Pretzels
- Candy Buttons
- Pull' n Peel Licorice
- Frostig
Instructions
- Unwrap all of the Twinkie cars you're going to make.Cut a 1" wide box out of the middle of the twinkie, not cutting all the way through but a seat for the bunny peep and pretzel wheel. Don't cut too far down or the seat won't be able to support the bunny and the Twinkie will fall apart.Separate the green watermelon Twizzlers pull 'n peel from the red, layering just enough to have 4 wheels for each car you're making. Lay all the final licorice in a pile, fold over to match the ends and then cut in the middle. Each wheel will be half of a full licorice peel. They don't have to be perfectly cut or sized as you can always trim the end. Start with one peel, roll from the inside out and squeeze final end to the roll while flattening with your fingers. With a toothpick, add a small amount of vanilla frosting in the middle of the wheel and press onto one side of the Twinkie, then repeat for the other 3 wheels. Peel apart the marshmallow bunnies and place your bunny in the 1" box you cut out of the Twinkie. Add your pretzel in front of the peep so it resembles the steering wheel. Press lightly so it stays in place. If you want your bunny to stay in place or secure it a bit more, you can add some frosting to the bottom of the peep before setting it in the Twinkie car.Add a small amount of frosting using a clean toothpick to the back of the candy buttons and place 2 on the front of the car.
