Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows

February 15, 2016 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

The perfect ending to a cold winter day of fun is a warm glass of chocolate milk with Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows for the finishing touch!

Kids (and adults) love hot chocolate and chocolate milk. Make their chocolate drinks extra special with these Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows. They are also a perfect activity to get the kids involved with to keep their little hands busy on snow days.

Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows and Milk

We have had a ton of snow days recently. First we had a major blizzard that dumped almost 3 feet of snow on the ground and then we keep getting little snow storms here and there that give us a few inches of the white, powdery stuff. My kids LOVE to play in it.

What they love even more is coming back inside and enjoying a warm, chocolate drink. That’s why I always have all the marshmallow ingredients ready to go. I keep chocolate dipped marshmallows and chocolate milk on hand for those days.

If you aren’t sure how to make marshmallows they’re super simple! I let the kids help with dipping the marshmallows and they added sprinkles to some. It was a great way to close out a day of playing and warm up after being outside in the cold. If you want to make these ahead of time, the marshmallows can be kept in an airtight container for a few days.
