How to Make Snowman Hat Treats

Easy Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Snowman Hat Treats
A lot of recipes call for Oreo Cookies but I like using Keebler Fudge Stripes Cookies. While I love Oreo cookies, it’s the size of the fudge stripped cookies that do it for me. If you compare the size of a regular marshmallow and an Oreo, they are almost the same circumference. Using the fudge stripes allows for a nice size hat rim.

  • INGREDIENTS (full printable recipe below)
    • Keebler Fudge Stipes Cookies
    • regular size marshmallows
    • chocolate candy coating (candiquick with microwaveable tray)
    • red cookie icing (mine was from Walmart)

    • Skewer the top of a regular size marshmallows, roll in the melted chocolate, spoon over the top and place on cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
    • Coat all the marshmallows, allow the chocolate to harden by leaving it on the counter or if you want to speed up the process, put in the refrigerator.
    • Once the chocolate has hardened it’s time to stick the marshmallow to the cookie.
    • If the chocolate has hardened, you may need to give the chocolate a quick zap in the microwave.
    • Place the cookies on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper STRIPPED SIDE DOWN.
    • Spoon a small ring of melted chocolate around the hole cut out of the cookie.
    • Place the coated marshmallow on the melted chocolate.
    • Set aside to harden.
    • Pipe a small ring of red icing around the base of the marshmallow to form a “ribbon”, while the icing is still wet add the sprinkles (holly and berry or flower).

The Perfect Stocking Stuffer

Homemade candy in a Christmas stocking is always better then store bought. HOW TO PREPARE: Place the hat on a piece of plastic wrap, pull the sides up to meet at the top, use a twist tie to close.

My Favorite Tool for Decorating Marshmallows

Easy Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Snowman Hat Treats
Holding a marshmallow or placing it on a metal fork while covering the marshmallow with chocolate is no easy task. The melted chocolate gets all over your hands and if you’re using a metal fork because the metal is cool you can’t get the marshmallow off the fork fast enough before the chocolate hardens. MY SUGGESTION: Use a skewer of some kind. Whether it be bamboo or metal. I like using the tool from Wilton.

PUDDLE OF CHOCOLATE EASY FIX

HOW TO FIX THE PUDDLE OF CHOCOLATE AROUND THE BASE OF THE MARSHMALLOW: If you didn’t get enough of the melted chocolate off the marshmallow (like me) before setting it on the wax paper to harden you might of ended up with a puddle of chocolate. There’s an easy fix for this. If some of the candy is thin, then with your fingers, simply break off what you can. If the chocolate is thick then use a grater or microplane and gently saw off the excess chocolate.

  3. Place the coated marshmallow on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Use your fingertips to pull the marshmallow from the skewer, spoon a little of the melted candy to cover the hole. Either leave on the counter or for faster results, place in the refrigerator (about 10 minutes).
  4. HOW TO FIX THE PUDDLE OF CHOCOLATE AROUND THE BASE OF THE MARSHMALLOW: If you didn't get enough of the melted chocolate off the marshmallow (like me) before setting it on the wax paper to harden you might of ended up with a puddle of chocolate. There's an easy fix for this. If some of the candy is thin, then with your fingers, simply break off what you can. If the chocolate is thick then use a grater or microplane and gently saw off the excess chocolate.
  5. IF THE MELTED CHOCOLATE HAS HARDENED WHILE WAITING FOR THE MARSHMALLOWS, THEN GIVE IT A LITTLE ZAP IN THE MICROWAVE (about 10 seconds on high).
  6. Place the cookies stripe side down on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper, add a small ring of melted chocolate around the hole in the cookie, place the coated marshmallow on the melted chocolate. Set aside to harden.
