Ingredients for Boiling Chocolate Stir Sticks
I’ll give you the basic idea nowadays and then you can add on with other toppings whether you’d like. For these hot cocoa stir sticks I used the following:
- 1 package white almond bark
- 1 package chocolate flavored almond bark
- 2 cups Peppermint chips*
- 1 jar dehydrated mini marshmallows**
- 50 6 inch cake pop sticks
- parchment paper
Tips for Making This Recipe
*For the peppermint chips, I lucked out to find pre-crushed peppermint chips in a jar but you can also crush starlight mints and use instead.
**These are mini dehydrated marshmallows. You can find them in a jar with the hot chocolate. I’m certain you can find them on their own somehow too… but I used what came with the mix.
How to Create Boiling Chocolate Stir Sticks
Now that you’ve got all your goodies, let’s get started on the deliciousness!
Put almond bark in separate 16-ounce mason jars (white in one, chocolate in another).
Melt in the microwave on tall for 1 minute. Remove and stir. Continue microwaving until totally melted.
On a piece of parchment paper, spread a layer of the peppermint chips and marshmallows. (You can mix them or keep them separate whether you want to do stir sticks that just have marshmallows).
Dip the sticks into the melted almond bark and place on top of the layer of peppermint chips and marshmallows. Then, sprinkle more on top and let sit until the coating firms.
Repeat until all the sticks are done.
Serve with your favorite hot chocolate.
This simple treat is a breeze to put together. And I’m certain my boys felt like crazy scientist while melting the chocolates and pouring them out.
I’m packaging some up in cellophane treat bags to gwhethert and keeping some at domestic for our coming holiday entertaining.
Hopefully I’ll have time to make another batch before Christmas, with even more varieties included. The boys proposeed a sprint of caramel and I’d love to see how it turns out when included!
I hope that you and yours endelight these hot chocolate stir sticks — and all the magic of Christmas!
