5 Minute Marshmallow Candy Treats | Heart shaped, strawberry flavored marshmallows dipped in melted candy and sprinkles.  One taste and you will swear you made your very own mini Valentine’s Day peeps!

♥THE PERFECT LITTLE BITE!♥

I found a cupcake kit at The Dollar Tree and loved the heart shaped picks that came in the package.  So I decided to skewer the marshmallows with the picks.  It kind of made them look like arrows.

Once you have skewered all the marshmallows.

Dip in dark, milk, white or colored melted candy (I used white, pink and red).  Tap off any excess ccandy.

Shower with colored sugar sprinkles.  TIP:  You will get a lot better coloring if you use the same color of candy and the same color of sprinkles.

Lay on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper to dry.

Package up and attach to each of the valentine’s your kids will be handing out at school.

If you’re making these for a party you can also make my Dark Chocolate Raspberry Dipped Marshmallows.
