- 12 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

- 24 candy eyes
- 1 cup colorful candy coating, melted
- 1/4 cup royal icing or melted chocolate (for assembly)
- Prepare Workspace: Clear your counter and gather all ingredients to organize your assembly process efficiently.
- Create Car Base: Place each mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup upside down. This forms the base of your race car.
- Attach Wheels: Using royal icing or melted chocolate as glue, attach two chocolate-covered pretzels on each side of the Reese’s base to serve as wheels.
- Add Eyes: Secure candy eyes on top of each Reese’s cup with icing, giving your race cars their playful faces.
- Decorate: Drizzle or dip the assembled race cars in melted colorful candy coating to add vibrant color and extra sweetness.
- Set: Allow the decorated race cars to set at room temperature for 15-30 minutes so the coating and icing firm up before serving.
Notes
- Use candy eyes that are edible and waterproof for best results.
- Substitute royal icing with melted white chocolate if preferred.
- Ensure the candy coating is not too hot to avoid melting the Reese’s cups.
- These treats should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent melting.
- Great activity for kids to participate in decorating.
