Ingredients

Scale

Race Car Base

  • 12 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

Wheels and Eyes

  • 24 chocolate-covered pretzels
  • 24 candy eyes

Assembly and Decoration

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

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Workspace: Clear your counter space and gather all the ingredients to have everything within reach before starting.
  2. Position the Base: Place each mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup upside down to serve as the base of your race car.
  3. Attach the Wheels: Using royal icing or melted chocolate as glue, attach two chocolate-covered pretzels on each side of the Reese’s base to mimic car wheels.
  4. Add the Eyes: Secure candy eyes on top of each car by pressing them gently into the icing or melted chocolate for a cute bunny look.
  5. Decorate with Candy Coating: Drizzle or dip the assembled race cars in the melted colorful candy coating to add vibrant decoration and a shiny finish.
  6. Set to Harden: Allow the decorated race cars to set at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes until the coating hardens and the pieces are firmly in place before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute royal icing with melted chocolate if preferred for assembly glue.
  • Use any color or type of candy coating that you like to customize the look of your race cars.
  • Allow the candy coating to fully harden to prevent the decorations from sliding off.
  • These treats are best served within a day for optimal freshness.
  • Store any leftovers at room temperature in an airtight container.
