Hi TT&J friends! It’s Roeshel from DIYShowOff and I’m happy to share a simple and festive holiday treat ‘how-to’ with you today. This makes around 2 dozen quick and cute hand dipped marshmallows treats.
DIY Hand-Dipped Marshmallow Treats Gift Idea
You’ll need:
- jumbo marshmallows (check the bakery aisle)
- candy melts
- wax paper
- decorative candy or candy sprinkles (Michaels and Target have cute options)
- coordinating straws or peppermint sticks or candy canes
- transparent treat bags and coordinating ribbon
What to do:
Melt candy melts according to package instructions.
Insert a straw (or candy cane) into the center of a jumbo marshmallow as a “handle” and ‘swirl’ marshmallow into the melted candy (I use a butter knife to wipe away the excess from the bottom).
