Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 14 ounce can low-fat sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 1 lb semi-sweet baking chocolate chopped
  • 8 ounces milk chocolate chopped
  • 1 tablespoon McCormick Vanilla Extract
  • 18 jumbo marshmallows cut in half
  • 36 lollipop sticks

  1. Cover a 9 inch pan with parchment paper. Spray with cooking oil.
  2. In a sauce pan over medium heat, bring the sweetened condensed milk and heavy cream just to boiling, stirring constantly with a whisk.
  3. Remove from the heat and pour the semi-sweet and milk chocolate pieces into the hot milk mixture. Allow to sit for 1 minute before stirring together until completely combined.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Pour into the prepared pan and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  6. Cut into 36 squares.
  7. Thread marshmallow pieces on the lollipop sticks, followed by the chocolate squares.

Notes

This may be done 2 days ahead of time. To serve, stir the stick in 8 ounces of hot milk. The chocolate can be made ahead of time and tightly covered in the fridge for up to two weeks before placing on a stick.
