Then you assemble. Place a ganache block on the bottom, a marshmallow on top, then skewer with a stick.

And the best part about this treat? It can be given and enjoyed all winter long, not just during the holidays! It would be a fun thing to serve at any New Year’s party!
Why am I the last person to find your site? Oh dear… you are freakin’ good! This is right up my alley! http://vickidesigner.com (Yes, you see right… two blogs, I’m nutso!)

..wow…on behalf of my kids ..who you will hear shrieking in the morning..and myself..YUMMO thanks for sharing..we’ll be doing this and the felt balls..most delightful!!
Hi! I LOVE this idea for christmas gifts to teachers, dance, bus drivers, etc. However, I just made a sample batch of the chocolate, but it doesn’t seem firm enough? SHould I put it in the refrig? Thanks!
Has anyone tried this using a peppermint stick? Just an idea!
I just made these and they turned out so cute! It was also way easier than I thought it would be. Great gift idea!!
I made these but the ganache was too soft, it was sticking to everything so I covered it with sifted cocoa powder, kind of like a truffle. Also, there’s a typo in the pre-made labels. The “chocolate” in the instructions is missing an A =\
Great idea. I’ve been excited for a couple of months to try these but they didn’t work out. Just tried making them but the chocolate ganache blocks are too sticky and keep sticking to the cellopane. Depressing.
What is the name of the cute font used on the word Marshmallow?
Mmmm, delicious! I’ll have to give this a go this winter! Thank you, StumbleUpon!

these would be even better if instead of using sticks, you use candy canes !!!!! so you can mint hotchoclate : ) would be lovely!
Wow, I think I have found what I’m making everyone I know. Thank you so much, this is awesome!
Such a beautiful idea for cold days, love this and it’s so easy to make!
I love the tags but there is a typo on them
the back says “chocolte”
Do regular store-bought marshmallows melt the same as these? I don’t have a mixer… lol
The link to the marshmallow recipe does not work. Help?
Thanks for this great idea, and for sharing your printable tags – I made these this year and loved giving them…and of course had to sample a couple. It’s so great to have something that presents so well that also tastes amazing!
Hi Heather…just wondering where the Rustic Marshmallows recipe went????
The recipe for rustic marshmallows in gone. Can you repost it? Or email it to me [email protected]
Thank you!!
This is so cute! I’m definitely going to make these. The link for the marshmallows isn’t working anymore. Is there somewhere else to find the recipe?
Going to give these a try tomorrow – they're going to need lots of testing before I gift them to anybody though!
Totally cute I am using this recipe for Teacher Appreaction !!! I tried to access the marshmallow portion of the recipe but it seems not to be there. Is there any way you can email to me? I would appreciate it so much!! Have an awesome day.
