Here’s what you’ll need to make marshmallow pops:

— Large Marshmallows

–White Chocolate and Milk Chocolate (or Dark Chocolate), for coating

–Valentines Sprinkles

–Candy Pop Sticks

How to Make Valentines Marshmallow Pops

Place a candy stick in the center of each marshmallow so that they stand up by themselves.

Melt the chocolate in a microwave safe dish (I like to use a glass Pyrex measuring cup) and then microwave for about 45 seconds. Stir the chocolate gently and then return to the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir again.

Repeat until all chocolate is warm and smooth.

Dip each marshmallow in chocolate, then top with sprinkles, turning marshmallows to cover all sides. Set on wax paper.

Repeat until all marshmallows are covered with chocolate and sprinkles. Wrap individually in baggies for gift giving or store in an airtight container.

What’s the best chocolate for melting?

When making candy like this I really find that dipping chocolate just works best. You can purchase Ghirardelli Melting Wafers at most grocery stores. I buy my melting chocolate in bulk on Amazon. If you really want to use chocolate chips instead, I suggest melting 1/2 tablespoon of shortening or coconut oil in with the chocolate chips, to thin it out and make it easier to dip the candy.

How to melt chocolate

I prefer to melt chocolate chips in the microwave because it is so fast and easy. Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe dish (I like to use a glass Pyrex measuring cup) and then microwave for about 45 seconds. Stir the chocolate chips gently and then return to the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir again.

Even if the chocolate chips aren’t completely melted, just keep stirring and see if they will melt all the way. If they still aren’t melted, microwave for another 15 seconds and stir again. You just want to be careful not to microwave the chocolate chips too long because then the chocolate will seize and be unusable.

You can also melt the chocolate chips over the stove in a saucepan. Just turn the heat to low and stir the chocolate chips just until melted.
