This year I made the possibly ridiculous goal of coming up with a new version of Christmas Crack each month. Unsurprisingly, I chose to make Easter Crack this month, but my choice of Easter candy may surprise you. I had originally considered using Cadbury Creme Eggs, as they are my favorite, but when I spotted the Easter Egg M&Ms at the store I knew they were too pretty to resist. You can swap the M&Ms out for your favorite Easter candy, but I don’t recommend using Peeps because Peeps are gross.

EASTER CRACK RECIPE
I love the bright pastel (is that an oxymoron?) colors that the Easter egg M&Ms add to the crack candy. Such a happy- and delicious-looking plate, don’t you think?
