Special Halloween Treat

Today my daughter and I made little Halloween treats for my daughter's friends who live next door.  These are a little sweet treats are perfect for a cold and rainy day like today - both to make and to enjoy!

We chose some sprinkles and put them in a small bowl.

Then we melted white chocolate in a double boiler.

Once the chocolate was melted, we dipped large marshmallows into the chocolate and then......

we rolled the marshmallows in our bowl of sprinkles and put them on a piece of parchment paper to harden.

To dress them up to give as gifts, we put two of them in a little plastic bag and tied the top with a silver twist tie.

In a bigger plastic gift bag, we put packets of hot chocolate and then put in our wrapped marshmallows.

We tied the bags with a colorful ribbon.

To complete the gift, my daughter made a "Happy Halloween" card.

Then her gift was ready to share!
