Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows Sprinkles (Printable)

Fluffy marshmallows coated in melted chocolate and vibrant sprinkles for a 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

# Directions:

01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set aside for easy assembly.
02 - Insert a lollipop stick or skewer into each marshmallow, pushing it about halfway through the center for secure handling.
03 - In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until completely smooth and fully melted.
04 - Hold each marshmallow by the stick and dip it into the melted chocolate, tilting the bowl to coat evenly. Allow excess chocolate to drip off for a few seconds.
05 - Immediately roll or sprinkle the chocolate-coated marshmallow with assorted sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet to ensure proper adhesion.
06 - Place the decorated marshmallows on the prepared baking sheet. Let chocolate 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. Keep away from heat and humidity to maintain texture.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They look impressive but take about twenty minutes from start to finish
  • The combination of fluffy marshmallow and crisp chocolate coating is dangerously addictive
02 -
  • Chocolate seizes if even a tiny drop of water gets into it, so make sure all your bowls and utensils are completely dry
  • Room temperature marshmallows are easier to dip than cold ones straight from the fridge
03 -
  • Chop your chocolate into pieces the same size for the most even melting
  • Hold the dipped marshmallow at a slight angle while the chocolate drips off for the thinnest, most elegant coating
