Caramel Marshmallow Pops Ingredients
Caramel squares: For the delicious dipping sauce, you will need 25 caramel squares.
Condensed milk: Adding in 1/2 cup of canned sweetened condensed milk will give the sauce a great consistency that is perfect for dipping.
Butter: Using 1/4 cup of butter for a nice rich taste.
Marshmallows: Grab about 30 large marshmallows, or however many you want to make for the event or occasion.
Toppings: Choose your favorite topping to dip the marshmallows in, we used chopped salted peanuts, sprinkles, and tiny M&M’s for this recipe.
How to make Easy Caramel Marshmallow Pops
Prep
Unwrap all the caramel squares and put them in a microwave safe bowl.
Put each of the toppings into separate small bowls, set aside.
Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
Caramel sauce
Then, add in the condensed milk and butter to the bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir and microwave for another 1 minute or until the caramels are completely melted.
Let the caramel sauce sit for about 5 minutes, to cool slightly. You want it still warm enough to be pliable but not too hot that it melts the marshmallows.
Assembly
Next, grab a marshmallow and insert a stick into one end.
After that, dip the other end into the caramel sauce and turn slightly to coat the full bottom and a little of the sides. Let the sauce drip off slightly, then immediately dip into the nuts, sprinkles, or mini M&M’s.
Repeat with remaining marshmallows, sauce and nuts. Let stand 20 minutes or until caramel coating is firm.
Serve and enjoy!

How long are marshmallow pops good for?
These caramel marshmallow pops can last in the fridge for up to a few days if stored in an airtight container. Just remember to let them thaw a little before eating so that they are easier to chew and eat. That said, they are also best eaten the same day that they are made, so don’t wait too long to enjoy these tasty pops!
What other kinds of toppings can be used for these pops?
You can use some other tasty treats to dip the caramel in if peanuts or sprinkles aren’t your favorite. Try your favorite cookie crumbles, or a different type of nut like walnuts or chopped pecans. Another delicious option would be mini chocolate chips, yum!

How far in advance can you make the marshmallow pops before they are too stale? I'd like to make them about 24 hours before I need tgem. Suggestions?

I'd recommend keeping them overnight in a large, closed container- so that you have plenty of room to spread them out. They should do well though! I made a ton and 2 didn't get eaten, so I put them in a large pyrex container…then kind of forgot about them! I found them several days later and they still tasted great!

DELISH!! I forsee making this in my future… and then fully dipping them in chocolate 🙂
