Ingredients
  

  • 8 Marshmallows
  • 24 Smarties
  • ¼ Cup Green Icing
  • 1 Cup Melting Chocolate
  • 15 Candy Eyes

Instructions
 

  • In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate gently using a double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
  • Hold each marshmallow by the bottom and dip the top half into melted chocolate. Let the excess drip off.
  • Before the chocolate sets, stick on candy eyes and a small orange Smartie piece for the beak.
  • Use green icing to draw a curved band over the top, attaching Smarties on each side as earmuffs.
  • Place the penguins on the tray and refrigerate for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.

Notes

  • Use toothpicks or skewers to dip without mess, kids can safely decorate while you handle the chocolate.
  • Don’t rush the setting process; chilled chocolate gives a perfect glossy finish.
  • For an ultra-cute display, stand penguins on crushed cookie “snow.”
