Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 pops
Ingredients
- 12 large marshmallows
- 1 cup chocolate melts
- Sprinkles
- 12 lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to create a clean surface for setting the marshmallow pops.
- Insert a lollipop stick into the center of each marshmallow, pushing about halfway through, ensuring it's secure but not piercing through the top.
- Melt the chocolate melts in a microwave-safe bowl, using 30-second intervals and stirring between each interval to prevent burning. Continue until the chocolate is completely smooth and fully melted.
- Hold each marshmallow by the stick and carefully dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring complete and even coverage. Gently tap the stick on the bowl's edge to remove excess chocolate.
- Immediately sprinkle Valentine-themed or red and pink decorative sprinkles over the chocolate-coated marshmallow while the chocolate is still wet.
- Place each decorated marshmallow pop on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet, allowing space between them to prevent touching.
- Refrigerate the marshmallow pops for 10-15 minutes or until the chocolate has completely hardened and set.
- Once set, serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Tips
- • Use high-quality chocolate melts for smoother, more consistent coating • Ensure your marshmallows are at room temperature for easier dipping • Keep chocolate at a consistent, smooth temperature by stirring frequently during melting • Work quickly when adding sprinkles to ensure they stick to the wet chocolate • Use a deep, narrow bowl for easier chocolate dipping • For a professional look, tap off excess chocolate gently and allow clean drips • Experiment with different sprinkle colors and themes for various occasions • Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the chocolate's shine and marshmallow's softness
