Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Pops

Oh my goodness these are so yummy! I have to admit I decided to make these on pure "cute" looking factor alone. Much to my amazement... they are as yummy as they are cute.

Confession #2- I am not a huge chocolate fan. Don't get me wrong, I like chocolate alot, I'm just not a chocoholic! I usually like tart or creamy desserts. Favorites include Lemon Bars, Cream Cheese things, Cupcakes, etc.
These taste totally different once the chocolate has hardened into the candy state rather than a fondue consistancy. I think that is what I like. The other thing I love about these is the range of usage! One could really get creative there.

Items needed for this project:
  • Marshmallows: either Large or Jumbo
  • Chocolate Candy Melts:  I prefer the Wilton brand.  Hobby Lobby carries another brand and I don't like the taste as well.  DON"T ever use the almond bard or baking crap you get at the grocery store.  Gag!  You might as well eat wax.  ( I hope I am not too harsh about that. :) )  You can find the wilton brand online, Michaels, WalMart, and Joann.
  • Optional- If you want pops you will need candy sticks or something to use as a stick.  I used a cute striped straw.
  • Marshmallow TreatsMarshmallow TreatsMarshmallow Treats

This is so easy and fun.  I'm pretty sure Chocolate makes everything taste better! Share with me your favorite chocolate dipping ideas here at Facebook (Show Me Cute).

Merry Christmas!

It was fun and now I have a cute & good anyone/anytime gift for my friennds and acquaintances. Happy Holidays! :D
