Valentine’s Day Marshmallow Pops
Servings: Makes 12 pops (each pop with 3 marshmallows)
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes (for melting chocolate and candy melts)
Cool Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 36 large marshmallows
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white candy melts
- 1/2 cup red candy melts
- 1/4 cup red heart sprinkles
- 12 lollipop sticks or decorative straws
- Parchment paper
Instructions:
Assemble the Marshmallows
For each lollipop stick or straw, push 3 marshmallows onto it, leaving a bit of space between each marshmallow for easier dipping and decorating.
Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 20-second increments, stirring in between until smooth. Avoid overheating.
Dip the Marshmallow Pops
Hold each stick and dip all three marshmallows into the melted chocolate, gently tapping the stick on the edge of the bowl to remove excess chocolate.
Set the Chocolate Coating
Place the chocolate-dipped marshmallow pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Drizzle with White and Red Candy Melts
Melt the white and red candy melts separately in microwave-safe bowls. Using a spoon or piping bag, drizzle the white candy melts over the chocolate-covered marshmallows. Repeat with the red candy melts and then add heart sprinkles.
Let Harden and Serve
Leave the pops on the parchment paper until the chocolate and candy melts are completely set. Once hardened, they’re ready to serve and enjoy!
