A few days ago, a post popped up in my Google reader that piqued my attention. It was a post about chocolate covered strawberry marshmallows. I starred it for later because, well…chocolate and strawberry marshmallows? Yes, please! The post was from Molly Jean over at The Rookie Chef. When I was trying to decide what to make for my classroom Valentine’s party, these were a perfect choice. I decided to snap a few extra pictures for your viewing pleasure.
Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Marshmallows
You need:
1 bag of marshmallows (I ended up using the large strawberry ones)
~ 6 squares of almond bark (not pictured) OR 1 bag chocolate chips
lollipop sticks (I found Wilton ones at Walmart)
sprinkles
A dish to work over (to catch runaway sprinkles)
Something to hold finished dipped marshmallows (I used a block of styrofoam)
Step 1: Start by melting the almond bark on the stove on VERY low heat (I just set my stove to warm). You can use a double-boiler, but don’t have to.
Step 2: Insert sticks into marshmallows: 
Step 3: Swirl the marshmallows into the chocolate, covering the top 2/3. Sorry, no pictures. It’s too hard to swirl and shoot at the same time!
Step 4: Sprinkles!
Step 5: Stick into the styrofoam holder and stick in the fridge for ~ an hour. This will allow the chocolate to completely harden.
Step 6: Wrap! I found cute bags at Dollar Tree and then used curling ribbon to tie it.
Here’s the final product:
These were a hit! They were tasty, too.
