Description
Hot Chocolate On A Stick is a fun, festive twist on a classic winter treat. Chocolate-coated sticks come with hot cocoa mix, mini marshmallows, and sprinkles. They’re perfect for stirring into a warm mug for instant holiday cheer.
Ingredients
24 oz. chocolate almond bark
6 packets of instant hot chocolate mix
1 cup mini marshmallows
3 tbsp. Christmas sprinkles
Supplies
3 red paper straws, cut in half
6 paper bathroom style cups
Tape
Instructions
- Start by cutting a slit into one side of your cups. Use a piece of tape to connect both sides of the slit.
- Add the almond bark to a microwave safe bowl, and microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring between until melted.
- Take a spoon, and coat the inside of the paper cups with melted chocolate. Use the back of the spoon to smooth it out evenly, and add a little extra to the bottoms of the cups.
- Move these to the refrigerator to chill for 10 minutes.
- Repeat this again, adding another layer of chocolate to coat the inside of the cups.
- Press a straw halve into the middle of each cup.
- Move the cups to the refrigerator to chill for 10 more minutes.
- Once the chocolate sets, add hot chocolate mix to each cup, it will hold a little less than one pack. Leave a little space at the top to add more chocolate.
- Spoon a bit more chocolate into the top of the cups over the hot chocolate mix. Press some mini marshmallows into the chocolate on top. Use a fork to drizzle some chocolate over the marshmallows. Add a few more marshmallows, and sprinkle with sprinkles.
- Move the cups to the refrigerator for 20 minutes to set.
- Once the chocolate has set, remove the tape and peel the plastic cups away from the chocolate.
- Enjoy, or if desired, use any remaining melted chocolate (almond bark can be re-melted), to drizzle over the front of the cups. Sprinkle with more sprinkles.
