Homemade Chocolate Stirrers

250g milk chocolate 

200g semi-sweet chocolate 

1/2 c  loosely packed cocoa

1 c  loosely packed powdered sugar

1/8 tsp salt

mini marshmallows

In a medium bowl, sift together cocoa, powdered sugar, and salt. Set aside

Break chocolate and place into a heatproof bowl. Sit over a pan of barely simmering water (a bain marie) and allow the chocolate to melt, stirring occasionally. 

Pour melted chocolate into the mixing bowl containing the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Mixture will be very thick, similar to brownie batter. Spoon mixture into a piping bag (no coupler or tip is needed) or into a sandwich bag with the corner sliced off. Pipe the chocolate into an ice cube tray.

Once all chocolate has been piped, pound the tray lightly on the counter to eliminate air bubbles and to flatten the tops of the cubes if they are uneven. Working one cube at a time, insert a stick and place four mini marshmallows onto the top of the cube. Once all cubes are complete, set aside until cubes are completely dry. Once all cubes are dry, remove carefully from the molds.

You can add different flavours to the stirrers such as mint or a Gingerbread Spice mix, possibilities are endless and you can play with different shapes or decoration styles, we just sprayed a little bit of edible gold dust on them.

To Use:
Heat up 1 cup milk and stir in. Enjoy.
