Description
If you’re looking for a great dessert to serve at your Halloween party, you have to try these easy, quick, and tasty pumpkin marshmallow bites!
Ingredients
- Large marshmallows
- Wilton Candy Melts – in orange
- Skewers or similar sticks
- Green candy coated sunflower seeds
- Green Wilton Sparkle Gel
Instructions
- I like to work in small batches, so I microwave about half of a bag of candy melts according to the package directions. Dip a stick into the candy melts and press onto the marshmallow. This prevents the stick from coming out when you spoon on the melts. Set aside until firm.
- For these pumpkins, I wanted somewhat of an irregular look, so I stirred and stirred and stirred and let my candy melts harden just a little bit before I used a spoon to cover the marshmallow.
- Begin by covering the bottom of the marshmallow, where the stick attaches to the marshmallow. Twirl the rest of your marshmallow in a spoon coated with candy melts. Finish by coating the top.
- Add a green sunflower seed for the stem and use the green Wilton sparkle Gel to make vines. Let set until dry.
- I like to dry my pumpkins upright, on the sticks, so I use small glasses full of white sugar to keep them upright. I also use the sugar in a repurposed tin can to keep the marshmallow bites upright on my party table. Enjoy!
