Dipped Marshmallows Sprinkles (Print Version)
Fluffy marshmallows coated in chocolate with vibrant sprinkles for a simple and festive treat.
# What You Need:
→ Marshmallows
01 - 20 large marshmallows
→ Chocolate Coating
02 - 7 oz semi-sweet chocolate or milk chocolate chips
03 - 1 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable oil (optional, for smoother melting)
→ Decorations
04 - 1/2 cup assorted sprinkles
→ Optional Equipment
05 - 20 wooden skewers or lollipop sticks
# How To Make:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to catch drips and provide a clean surface for setting.
02 - Gently push a skewer or lollipop stick into the center of each marshmallow, being careful not to push all the way through.
03 - Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each, until completely melted and smooth.
04 - Hold each marshmallow by the stick and dip halfway into the melted chocolate. Lift and allow excess chocolate to drip off for a few seconds.
05 - Immediately coat the chocolate-dipped portion with sprinkles while chocolate is still wet, either by sprinkling over the top or dipping into a bowl of sprinkles.
06 - Stand marshmallows upright on the prepared baking sheet. Let chocolate set at room temperature for 15 minutes, or refrigerate for 5-10 minutes for faster setting. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container up to 3 days.
