Method
- Break the chocolate into pieces and place in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Leave until the chocolate has melted.
- Thread three marshmallows on to a long wooden skewer and spoon some of the melted chocolate over the marshmallows to coat. Gently shake off any excess chocolate.
- Sprinkle liberally with chocolate strands or hundreds and thousands to cover the chocolate completely. Place the skewers on a cooling rack.
- Repeat with the rest of the marshmallows to make about 10 swizzle sticks in total. Chill in the fridge for 30 mins until set.
Top Tip for making Marshmallow swizzle sticks
For a variation, replace the milk chocolate with white or plain chocolate and dip them in desiccated coconut or chocolate shavings.
