Marshmallows are even better when dipped in chocolate! Use purchased or homemade marshmallows for this quick and easy treat. If desired, you can place the marshmallows on toothpicks or small skewers before dipping to make them easier to eat and serve. This is a great party treat for all ages.
Ingredients:
1 package (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tbsp shortening
1 bag large marshmallows or 1 lb homemade marshmallows
Assorted sprinkles or small candies (optional)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
Preparation:
1. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil.
2. Combine the chocolate chips and the shortening in a large microwave-safe bowl, and microwave until melted, stirring after every minute.
3. Skewer the marshmallows with toothpicks or small skewers, and use to dip the marshmallows in chocolate. Place a marshmallow in the melted chocolate and submerge it slightly. Take out and place on baking sheet to dry. If you are using sprinkles or small candies, sprinkle them on when the chocolate is still wet. Repeat with remaining chocolate and marshmallows.
4. Place the marshmallows in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
5. If desired, melt the white chocolate and drizzle it over the marshmallows for a decorative look. Briefly return the candy to the refrigerator to set the white chocolate before serving.
