Happy Halloween month, friends!
I created this fun recipe with my kids in mind, as most of my food is. They love to help make and eat my recipe creations so we definitely had some messy fun making these Marshmallow Monster Pops!
These tasty treats make a spooktacular Halloween party dessert or gift!


Ingredients:

Makes 12 pops
  • 8 jumbo marshmallows
  • 12 oz colored vanilla flavored candy melts {I used 3 colors}
  • 8 candy eyes
  • Halloween themed sprinkles, for topping

Directions:

  1. Pour candy melts into a shallow bowl or mason jar and melt in the microwave on 50% power for 1 min.Stir then repeat in 30 second intervals until smooth. I used 3 colors, all in separate jars.
  2. Insert a treat stick into the center of each marshmallow.
  3. Dip and swirl in the candy melts and tap off any excess.
  4. Gently add sprinkles all over and press a candy eye in the center.
  5. Place in a cup or stand to harden for a couple minutes.
  6. Repeat with remaining marshmallows dipped in different colored candy melts. 
  7. Wrap in clear treat bags and tie with ribbon as gifts or serve at a Halloween party as a festive treat!

For these Monster Pops I used 3 different colors of candy melts for dipping.
 I used a half bag of each and was able to cover 12 jumbo marshmallows.

Pour candy melts into a shallow bowl or mason jar and melt in the microwave on 50% power for 1 min.

Stir then repeat in 30 second intervals until smooth.

Insert a treat stick into the center of each marshmallow.


Dip and swirl in the candy melts.
Then tap off any excess.

Gently add sprinkles all over.

Then press a candy eye in the center.

Place in a cup or stand to harden for a couple minutes.

Wrap in clear treat bags and tie with ribbon as gifts or serve at a Halloween party as a festive treat.

 I like to prop mine up in candy filled mason jars for a fun presentation.

Ava couldn’t wait to sample hers!
My little foodies have a sweet tooth like their Mama!

I just love making treats at home with my kiddos.
What is your favorite kid friendly homemade Halloween treat? 


Hope you like this recipe as much as my family and I did!

Final Florida lunch with my Dad at a local hotspot: @stewbyseafoodshanty on Okaloosa Island. They have multiple locations but this one is by far my favorite. New, clean, beautiful scenery, and lots of space inside and outside.
🐟🐠🎣
I could eat here every day. Their seafood is the BEST. For lunch we tried their grilled grouper sandwich and seafood combo plate with amberjack, grilled shrimp, fried oysters, and all the sides and sauces to go with it (check out those scrumptious cheese grits)! 
🐟🐠🎣
Next door they have a seafood market, gift shop, and new steamer restaurant with steam buckets of shrimp, crab, and flounder with all the fixins. ⬅️ I know what I am ordering next time! Their motto: local fish at local prices. Check them out and thank me later.

🦀 Check out our lunch yesterday at my parents favorite local spot, @soiasianbistro . We tried a variety of items off of their massive updated menu.
🍣 The sushi was by far the best thing we ordered. Another must try is the Shiso Mono appetizer, which is tempura fried Japanese basil leaves stuffed with spiced tuna. 
🍤 We also ordered cucumber salad, pork ramen, udon noodles, and chicken katsu curry. All were tasty and big enough to share with the sushi appetizer. 
🍜 I recommend checking out Soi Bistro if you are in town and enjoy fresh seafood and Asian dishes like we do. But save it for a date night or special occasion b/c their price point was pretty high for a casual meal. ❤
