Peppermint Chocolate Covered Marshmallows for Christmas

Ingredients:

24 Mini Candy Canes
12 Large Marshmallows
1 Cup Chocolate Candy Wafers
12 Large Candy Canes For Serving, If Desired

Instructions:

Cover a cookie sheet with wax paper.
Unwrap 24 small candy canes. Crush 12 of them using a plastic baggie and a rolling pin. (A food processor would also work great if you have it!).
Insert 12 other candy canes into the top of each marshmallow.
Freeze for ~15 minutes.
In a microwave safe bowl, melt candy wafers for 30-45 seconds or until smooth.
Dip each marshmallow into the melted chocolate. Sprinkle with crushed candy canes.
Place back onto prepared pan. Refrigerate until set.
Stick a large candy cane in the center of each marshmallow for serving if desired.
