It’s time to start stocking up on Easter candy to fill your holiday baskets. This year, marshmallow Peeps can take a back seat because there’s a new treat in town: Stuffed Puffs chocolate-filled marshmallows in Easter-themed pastel colors.
What Are Easter Stuffed Puffs?
Stuffed Puffs aren’t new—but this pastel version is fresh for Easter 2021. Each bag comes with 10 individually-wrapped marshmallows stuffed with a velvety, milk chocolate center. It’s a mash-up of everyone’s favorite s’mores ingredients—the chocolate and marshmallow, of course.
These limited edition ‘mallows come in a beautiful rainbow of spring colors, including Sunflower Yellow, Bubblegum Pink and Daydream Blue.

How to Enjoy Them
You can easily add them to an Easter basket, because they’re the perfect size for stuffing in Easter eggs. If you’re lucky enough to have nice weather for the holiday, these would be perfect to use in an outdoor Easter egg hunt!
Once all the treats have been collected, you can use them to make spring-themed s’mores. Simply place an unwrapped Stuffed Puff on a graham cracker and pop it in the microwave for 7-10 seconds—depending on how hot your appliance gets. The chocolate melts from the inside. Yum! You can also drop a Stuffed Puff in your homemade hot chocolate.
The folks from Stuffed Puffs also have a great recipe for Easter cupcakes topped with a gooey marshmallow frosting, which we’d be hoppy to try.
Where Can I Buy the Easter Stuffed Puffs?
The limited edition Easter-inspired Stuffed Puffs are in stores everywhere, like Walmart, CVS and Amazon. Each bag contains 10 single-serve ‘mallows. You’ll want to grab ’em ASAP, to have them ready for Easter!

"I like to top them with cream cheese frosting," she adds.
Lemon Cupcakes with Strawberry Frosting
I sometimes call these my Triple Lemon Whammy cupcakes because they take full advantage of vibrant citrus flavor. A healthy dollop of strawberry jam in the frosting along fresh strawberries really puts this dessert over the top! — Emma Sisk, Plymouth, Minnesota
Chocolate-Coconut Angel Cupcakes
My guests are never satisfied with just one of these, but that's OK because they are so light. The meringue-like tops make them different, and the chocolate and coconut make them memorable. —Bernice Janowski, Stevens Point, Wisconsin

Rosy Rhubarb Cupcakes
If you're in a big hurry, these cupcakes are delicious even without frosting. The recipe works well with either fresh or frozen rhubarb, and a hint of nutmeg sparks the flavor. —Sharon Nichols, Brookings, South Dakota
Aloha Cupcakes
A friend asked me to make a coconut and pineapple cupcake for a gathering she was hosting. Everyone agreed that this beauty took them to the tropics. The macadamia nuts are completely optional (the friend happens to be allergic), and the cupcakes are still fantastic without them. —Shannon Dobos, Calgary, Alberta
Tres Leches Cupcakes
This cupcake version of tres leches cake actually uses four types of milk, including the cream, but "quatro leches cake" just doesn’t have the same delicious ring to it. If you love dairy, you won’t be disappointed with this special take on the classic. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Classic lemon meringue pie inspired these gorgeous little cupcakes. The tangy treats hide a surprise lemon pie filling and are topped with fluffy toasted meringue.
