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
- 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.
- Stir in a tiny bit of coconut oil to thin the chocolate for a smoother coating.
- 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.
- While the chocolate is wet, add sprinkles to the top. Place the marshmallows in the fridge for at least 20 minutes to set.
- 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.
- Return the marshmallows to the fridge for another 20 minutes to ensure the eyes are firmly attached.
