Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows (Printer-friendly)
Fluffy marshmallows coated in smooth chocolate and colorful sprinkles for a fun, festive treat.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Marshmallows
01 - 20 large marshmallows
→ Chocolate Coating
02 - 7 oz dark or milk chocolate, chopped or chips
03 - 1 tbsp coconut oil, optional for smoother dipping
→ Decorations
04 - 1/2 cup assorted sprinkles
→ Extras
05 - 20 lollipop sticks or skewers
# How to Make It:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
02 - Insert a lollipop stick or skewer into each marshmallow, pushing it about halfway through the center for stability.
03 - Combine chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval, until completely smooth and fully melted.
04 - Hold each marshmallow by the stick and dip into the melted chocolate, rotating to coat evenly. Allow excess chocolate to drip off for a clean finish.
05 - Immediately sprinkle with assorted sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet, ensuring they adhere properly before the coating sets.
06 - Place dipped marshmallows on the prepared baking sheet. Allow chocolate to set at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 10 minutes for faster results.
07 - Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- These come together in under twenty minutes but look like you spent way more effort on them
- The combination of fluffy marshmallow and crisp chocolate coating is completely addictive
- Theyre endlessly customizable for any holiday or celebration theme
02 -
- Work quickly once the chocolate is melted because it starts setting up faster than you expect
- Room temperature chocolate melts more evenly than chocolate straight from the refrigerator
- If your chocolate thickens while dipping, microwave it for ten more seconds to loosen it back up
03 -
- White chocolate needs extra attention when melting since it scorches more easily than dark or milk chocolate
- Letting excess chocolate drip for ten full seconds before decorating prevents puddles at the base of each marshmallow
