Description

A super-fun Christmas treat that your kids will love!

Ingredients

  • 1 box Candy Canes
  • 1 bag Marshmallows
  • 3 bags Chocolate Wafers To Melt (red, Green & White)

Preparation

I made these for all of my children’s classes as a Christmas treat last year. They are quite easy to make…but I rated this recipe as “intermediate” because it is very time intensive.

You might need to have more bags/boxes of the ingredients available depending on the number of people you are making this treat for.

1. Use a skewer (that has been sprayed with Pam Spray) to poke holes into 2-3 marshmallows.

2. Slide the marshmallows onto the candy cane.

3. Dip the marshmallow part of your treat into the bark chocolate that is melted.

4. Allow the chocolate to harden and then use a spoon to drizzle other colors of chocolate over your treat.

Angie’s Hint: Buy extra candy canes because you will probably break a few when you are trying to take the blasted plastic wrap off of them.

I made these for my daughters kindergarten Christmas party…. and they were a hit!! Everyone thought they were so cute. It’s nice to have something other that cookies as a party treat! Thanks!

Here’s my experience with these. I couldn’t find any colors of melting chocolate or almond bark other than white. So, and here’s where I reveal my ignorance, I bought food coloring and decided to dye one bowl of it red, and another green. What I didn’t know was that any liquid will harden the chocolate. So…. we dipped the marshmallows in white only, and used Christmas cookie sprinkles. The kids didn’t know the difference and didn’t care. I did this with 8 kids, ages 3 to 10. They had a blast.

Rhoswen – Thanks for the exacto knife hint!
Angie – These are so fun. Made some for “stirrers” to go with my homemade hot cocoa mix for gifts. Festive way to perk up the packaging.

Oh how cute! I might do these when I have a cookie baking party for my daughters and a few of their friends next weekend.
