Marshmallow Easter EGGsandwich!
Welcome to Pizzazzerie’s latest contributor – Nicolle Spitulnik of Libby Lane Press! She’s sharing a cute treat idea for Easter season!
With Easter around the corner and the aisles of my favorite stores bursting at the seams with sugar, I knew this was the ideal time to get creative in the kitchen.
Once I saw Kraft’s Jumbo EggMallows it was inspiration at first sight! These pastel jet-puffed treats became the springboard for my first post as a monthly contributor on Pizzazerie. So, with the perfect egg shape and a little filling creativity the Easter EGGsandwich came to life.
This is a simple way to incorporate marshmallows into your Easter dessert table without having to fall back on oldie-but-goodie Peeps {and don’t worry, we love Peeps, but here is how you can tie them in to your sweet display}.
To style this look, I purchased a grapevine nest and then added edible grass to create a festive Easter look.
Next, using a serrated knife, I cut the jumbo jet-puffed EggMallows in half, length-wise. Initially, I used only vanilla frosting as a filler and embellished with jellybeans, but then decided to chop Candy Melts to add a new flavor and color.
Other filling ideas include:
- crumbled cookies for a Cookies & Cream flavor
- milk chocolate chips
- graham cracker
- coconut
After placing the ‘top’ on the sandwich, I used tiny dabs of frosting as glue to keep the edible sprinkles and confetti in place. And wah-lah! Here you have not only a sweet dessert in a nest {who doesn’t love creative table displays?!} but also a simple, colorful take on a classic Easter treat.

Cute Idea. I like how the little eggs are displayed in a nest. Every kid loves marshmallows & sprinkles.
Thanks, Jamie! I couldn’t agree more.. it’s all in the presentation {and sugar doesn’t hurt either!}
