Candy Cane Marshmallow Bites

Ho ho ho! Christmas is almost here!  Hope you are all staying warm!  Today, we're making Candy Cane Marshmallow Bites.  They're adorable and delicious, easy to make and easy to eat!  They're perfect for the holiday season and kids will love them!  So let's get started, shall we?!

Ingredients

Mini Candy Canes

Vanilla frosting with a few drops of food coloring 

Marshmallows

Red and Green Sprinkles

Instructions

Unwrap candy canes and take marshmallows out of bag
Put three drops of food coloring in vanilla frosting and stir. (I chose green but red or blue could also work for the holiday season!)
Place the mini candy cane in the middle of the marshmallow
Spread the frosting on the whole lower half of the marshmallow and make sure to also get the bottom
Choose your sprinkle of choice, and shake it out onto the frosting
Eat and enjoy!

This is an activity that kids will enjoy and it's super easy!  They'll love eating these small bites and it will get them into the holiday spirit real fast!  Who doesn't love vanilla frosting, fluffy marshmallows, sprinkles, and candy canes!  And all four of these ingredients combined will keep you dreaming of sugary desserts all night long.

These are delicious eaten on its own, but if you'd like to step it up and use white chocolate instead of frosting and complete the rest of the steps above, you can create a White Chocolate Peppermint Marshmallow to enjoy with your hot cocoa!  You can hook the top of the candy cane on the side of the mug, sip, and enjoy!

And as Nsync says...Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
