Ingredients
Units
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
- 10 oz mini marshmallows, do not substitute fluff
- 3 Tbsp butter or margarine
- lollipop sticks
- 15 oz semi-sweet chocolate (¾ of a large bar)
- sprinkles, candy or other decorative items
Instructions
- Grease a large bowl and the spatula you will be using. This will help avoid too much sticking.
- In a microwave-safe bowl melt the butter or margarine with the marshmallows at 30-second intervals at full power. Stir after each interval. When melted, remove and pour into bowl with the Rice Krispies. Mix well until all are coated with marshmallow.
- Spread mixture into a greased sheet pan. Using your hands, spread mixture evenly onto pan, then press together so the Rice Krispies treats are compact. Allow to sit for several minutes at room temperature to cool.
- Form the Rice Krispies treat mix into triangular, hamantaschen shapes. Place lollipop stick into center.
- Over a double broiler, melt 15 oz semi sweet chocolate. Reserve the last ¼. Melt chocolate, stirring gently until all is melted. Take chocolate carefully off the double broiler. Be very careful not to let any water drip into chocolate. If this happens, you need to start over; chocolate “seizes” when water gets into it so the tempering process does not work.
- Add in the remaining chocolate. Let sit in hot chocolate for 30 seconds, then stir.
- Dip hamantaschen into chocolate, tap stick lightly to remove the excess chocolate. Place on parchment to let dry.
- After 2 -3 dipped pops, start decorating before that chocolate sets in! Use your favorite sprinkles, chocolate chips, Oreos or candy to add your own flare.
