Ingredients

• 8 Peeps Bunnies multiple colors
• Chocolate cake mix
• 1 oz pkg instant Pistachio flavored pudding
• 32 Mini Robin Eggs chocolate candies
• 1 cup shredded coconut
• green food coloring
• Easter themed sprinkles optional

Instructions

• Bake the chocolate cake, I made mine the night before. I made 2 round 8 inch cakes and used one for this recipe and I frosted and served the other.
• Prepare pudding according to package instructions and place in the fridge to chill.
• Once cooled, use a fork and crumble the 8 inch cake in the pan.
• Pour the cake crumbles into a bowl and set aside.
• Add shredded coconut to a baggie or bowl and add 2 drops of green food coloring. Stir until the coconut is bright green.
• To assemble the pudding cups, start with small clear drink cups.
• Add a couple spoonfuls of cake crumbles to each cup then two Robin Egg candies on each.
• Add another spoonful or two of cake and then few Robin Egg candies.
• Top with a couple spoonfuls of green pudding. Smooth out and cover the cake.
• Sprinkle with green coconut and add a few Easter themed sprinkles if you'd like. I had bunny and carrot shaped sprinkles that looked super cute.
• Finally, top each cup with a Peep Bunny. I used 4 different color Peeps to top my different pudding cups.
• Serve right away if you can or chill until serving.
