These Marshmallow Monsters are a fun and simple Halloween treat. Dip marshmallows in colored candy melts, add sprinkles, and use gel icing to stick on googly eyes. A quick chill in the fridge sets the chocolate perfectly.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Melt the candy melts in separate bowls using the microwave. Heat for 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted. Using small bowls makes it easier to submerge the marshmallows.
  2. Stir in a tiny bit of coconut oil to thin the chocolate for a smoother coating.
  3. Insert a toothpick into the bottom of a marshmallow to use as a handle. Dip the marshmallow into the melted chocolate, leaving a small white strip at the base.
  4. While the chocolate is wet, add sprinkles to the top. Place the marshmallows in the fridge for at least 20 minutes to set.
  5. Once the chocolate has fully hardened, use gel icing as glue to attach candy eyeballs. If you attach them while the chocolate is still soft, they'll slide down.
  6. Return the marshmallows to the fridge for another 20 minutes to ensure the eyes are firmly attached.
