FOOD: Chocolate-Dipped Smashmallows

Yes, I said Smashmallows. 

The team over at SmashMallows sent us these organic & gluten-free marshmallows & they are Mmmmm!  They are known as America's first snackable marshmallows. All of their snacks are made from the best natural ingredients along with a variety of flavors. Since Valentine's day is coming we were inspired to try one of their recipes using the Strawberries & Cream flavored marshmallows!
Recipe below.


Their current flavors include:  Toasted Coconut Pineapple, Mint Chocolate Chip, Root Beer Float, Meye Lemon Chia Seed, Cinnamon Churro, Espresso Bean & Strawberries & Cream!  The links I included are to purchase them in packs of 4 or to buy their variety pack here.

A flavor I'd LOVE to see would be.... Chocolate & Cream. Come on guys! That would be ideal to add to my hot cappuccino in the mornings!  Kids really love smashmallows as you can see below, my son ate 2 of the Chocolate Dipped Smashmallows I made!  He's got a SWEET TOOTH but for some reason he didn't like the melted chocolate as much..so I had to place his in the freezer to harden for a bit, then he ate it!   This Valentine's Day surprise a friend, your hubby or a co-worker with some smashmallows.

 INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips or chocolate cut into squares

PREP:
