Here's a quick rundown on how to do this. Very cute and very easy.
Ingredients:
Large marshmallows
Peppermint sticks
White Chocolate
Coarse sugar sprinkles
Take one peppermint stick and poke it into one end of a marshmallow. I found it easiest to put the marshmallow on a flat surface, poke the peppermint stick into it, then press the marshmallow around the peppermint stick. Repeat until all marshmallows and peppermint sticks are used.
Melt white chocolate (I used Candy Melts) then dip the marshmallow into the chocolate. Tap off excess chocolate then sprinkle with coarse sugar. Set aside so chocolate can harden.
** TIP: If you use Candy Melts, add about a tablespoon of vegetable oil per 1 cup of chocolate after the chocolate has been melted. It thins out the candy and makes for easier dipping.
I wrapped mine in candy bags.
To be used in hot chocolate.
