Instructions

1. Prepare the marshmallows before melting the chocolate. Marshmallows are like snowflakes … no two are the same, so you want to make sure you have like ones together. We sort through the bag of marshmallows and match them up in sets of threes.
2. Place the first marshmallow on the lollipop stick.
3. Add the second marshmallow, and adjust them on the lollipop stick.
4. Add the third marshmallow but only press the marshmallow halfway down onto the stick.  You do not want the stick to come out the top of the third marshmallow or the marshmallow will dry out.
5. Place the 1/2 cup of melting wafters on a microwave-safe dish or paper plate. (This amount of chocolate should be enough to cover four Marshmallow Pops.)
6. Microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds, check it and give it a stir.
7. Continue to microwave the chocolate, 10 seconds at a time, alternating between heating and stirring.
8. Once the chocolate is almost completely melted, give it a final stir to make sure it is completely smooth. 
9. Roll the marshmallows on the stick in the melted chocolate.
10. If you have problems rolling the marshmallows in the chocolate, have a spoon handy and you can spoon the chocolate over the marshmallows and smooth out the chocolate on the marshmallows.
11. Don’t forget to dip the top of the marshmallow into chocolate.
12. Once the marshmallow pop is completely covered with chocolate, lightly tap the stick on the edge of the plate to get the excess chocolate off.  Give it a once over to make sure it is all covered and place it on a piece of parchment paper.  This will leave a “flat side” on the marshmallow, so if you want it rounded on all sides you will have to let them dry standing up and for that, you will need a form brick to put the sticks into. 
13. You can decorate the Marshmallow Pops with sprinkles, just remember to add the sprinkles while the chocolate is still warm so they will stick.
14. You can also use candy melts to decorate the Marshmallow Pops. While the chocolate on the marshmallow pops is drying, melt 15-20  each of different colored candy melts in individual Ziploc bags in the microwave.  Microwave them in 20-second intervals, massage the baggies to make sure the candy melt mixture is melting, and then microwave again if needed. Once melted, cut the tip off the bag and drizzle the first color of candy melt over the marshmallow pop. Alternating colors, drizzle the rest of the melted candy over the Springtime Marshmallow Pops.
15. Allow the marshmallow pops to harden completely before serving.
