Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (10 ounce) bag large marshmallows
- 1 cup candy cane pieces, finely crushed
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening (optional, for smoother melting)
- Christmas-themed sprinkles (optional)
- Lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Insert a lollipop stick into the flat end of each marshmallow.
- Place the white chocolate chips and shortening (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Dip each marshmallow into the melted white chocolate, coating it completely. Let excess chocolate drip off.
- Immediately roll the coated marshmallow in the crushed candy cane pieces, pressing gently to adhere.
- If using, add Christmas-themed sprinkles to the wet chocolate before the candy cane coating sets completely.
- Place the decorated marshmallow pops on the prepared baking sheet.
- Allow the chocolate to set completely, about 30 minutes, or refrigerate for a quicker set.
Notes
- You can use red and white candy canes for a classic look.
- Ensure candy canes are crushed very finely for best coverage.
- Store the finished pops in an airtight container at room temperature.
