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.
