1. Butter the molds 2. Melt bittersweet and milk chocolate 3. Fill (~ 2 tbsp) chocolate in the molds 4. Put 4 marshmallows on top 5. Melt white chocolate and sprinkle over the chocolate sticks. Now sprinkle sprinkles on 6. Put in freezer for 1h. After the first 10 min, put the popsicle in the center 7. Put it in hot milk and mix
Love this. I do not have the mold that you used, and I really do not like coconut oil plus I have people who are allergic. So instead..skipped the zip lock bag and used a square brownie pan sprayed with cooking oil and then parchment paper lined...let everything set up and used a sharp chef knife to cut then evenly into squares. Worked great. Thanks!
a candy cane could work as someone else stated, but I also have seen these done with cute little spoons. I think that would make it a slightly more expensive gift for someone?
There are so many ways of doing this the possibilities and varieties make it a great party favor/gift. Crushed mint instead of sprinkles, edible glitters, those round sprinkley chocolate balls they use on cakes, peppermint sticks/candy canes instead of the popsicle wood or even clove sticks if you like it with a kick, and so on. Such a neat idea for sure!
You are my favorite person doing cooking on the web. Such a nice personality, someone I wish I had for a next door neighbor when I was young. You are so enthusiastic, and have such GREAT recipes (so tasty and healthy) Even though I am disabled I still get satisfaction out of watching you doing it.
If you want you can use other toppings like crushed candy canes, mini chocolate chips, mini M&Ms, etc.. also if you don't want to play the guessing game of when to add your sticks( because if your freezer is colder/warmer than hers you may have issues) you can put saran wrap/waxpaper/ tinfoil on top of the molds, poke the sticks through and then fold it around the edges to keep them from moving (or if your using something with a more flared bottom like a spoon or paddle kinda thing put them in first and poke through as you put wrap on top) depending on the sturdieness of your mold will effect how this works with what you have so don't be afraid to fasten it down with a rubber band or tape if you can and need to.
Love this, however, instead of the sticks I used candy canes for the stirrer. I agree with you that this is the best hot chocolate and great to warm back up with after playing out in the cold. Merry Christmas.
I had the same thought as well! Not only would it add to the festiveness, but it also makes the whole thing edible, and the hook part of the cane can hook on to the edge of your cup/mug!!
Samm & Misty That's the point! I often add peppermint schnapps to my hot chocolate. :) Although, if you don't like mint, candy canes come in many different flavors now.
I'm an L.A. girl born and raised...and I have always called them jimmies...lol I worked in a bakery when I was young, the owners were from Chicago. They taught me well :)

Hi Laura; question for you re the chocolate; Can you use high quality candy coating for the milk and bittersweet chocolate or Baker's Chocolate for this?
I found this video while looking for a recipe to make hot chocolate “bombs” that are super popular on social media right now. I am going to use your video as a jumping off point to make some for our family to enjoy on Christmas Eve. Thank you for the recipe!
Laura, which type of chocolate to use? I live in a tropical country so things tend to melt really fast 😂. What would your advise be? I would love to give these for Christmas!
LOL she said 'jimmies'!! I think its a northeast thing cause im from Massachussets and thats what we call them too, not sprinkles. Love chocolate jimmies too!
Thanks Laura. Very cute idea I'm having a girl night; just hanging out. It's cold now so this would be a wonderful way to keep those who get cold warm😜
Laura! I’m all self taught when it comes to cooking and of course your videos have helped so much! But I just bought a cast iron skillet and wanted to know if you can do a video on how you season and clean yours. There’s a thousand videos on them but I really want to know your way 😃 thank you if you see this and do it! If not I’ll gladly take other suggestions from other subbies 😘
Laura, I tried to access recipe but doesnt show print out. also typed episode 1212. Lv you &would love more pics of little darling now that its Christmas. I also wonder if your nona has seen baby? this would be lovely to share. I just love watching your time together.God bless &Merry Christmas.

Instead of popsicle sticks a candy cane would look cute.💕🎄
Not everyone likes peppermint tho🤷🏻♀️ I was thinking that too.
I love this idea 😍 those are gorgeous for gifts. Thank you Laura
FitAngie That’s what I was thinking. Perfect for teachers gifts.
The Jabber Crew absolutely! I think they are ideal and so easy to make

Samantha and Dexter German Shepherd Dogs That’s a great idea but I would do it with the candy cane sticks not the ones that curve like a cane
I love getting warm and cozy in this winter time, don't you, Laura? As in hot chocolate! Thanks! 🍫🍵
Great idea and very creative…..gotta try this one! Thanks!
I’m having a winter wedding and think this would be so fun to make for a hot chocolate bar!
Perfect timing for Nation Hot Cocoa Day, Dec. 13th. These will make cute gifts for friends and coworkers.
This is very cute and creative. Love it😍😋
LAURA I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU AND YOUR RECIPES AND YOUR FAMILY. I MEAN IVE BEEN FOLLOWING YOU FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER ❤️
Lots of love to Mia xx
Why do you love her family
Such a creative idea. I made a few this holiday season. Will be doing these again in the future.
Jimmies!!!!!! I’m a PA girl living in Jersey now!!! Love that you called them that!! Haha
Kelly Weingart I’m a Pittsburgh girl living in NC and we say Jimmies too!
I'm an L.A. girl born and raised...and I have always called them jimmies...lol I worked in a bakery when I was young, the owners were from Chicago. They taught me well :)
I'm a Boston born and raised girl and we've called them jimmies forever! I thought it was just a New England thing!
Haha I live in Michigan:D
Jimmies for the win! I prefer chocolate over rainbow, though ☺️
You can melt the chocolate in a pyrex liquid measuring cup.. it’s easier for pouring
GREAT GIFTS FOR CHRISTMAS
Thanks for showing us how to enjoy them. I thought they were just fun candies.
My daughter it's gonna love it. Perfect gift. Grazie Lauretta.
Your videos are always so comforting. I love the intro and it instantly calms me when I'm feeling stressed out.
Thank you for being there! ^-^
Ugh ... yeeeees! I’m making “hot chocolate stations” so this makes them fancier!
Just made them for gifts (daycare staff) they tasted one ! Best chocolate milk I have had in a long time!
Awesome idea. Thank you Laura
Laura, you were way ahead of the hot chocolate bomb craze! 😁
3:38 is so satisfying 😋😋😋
Can you make a vanilla cake filled with custard and strawberry jam or strawberry caramel ?
A Victoria sandwich.
I believe she's already made that? Look through her desserts playlist
@@zainabnuzhan376 not exactly Victoria sponges have whipped cream not custard or caramel
they also have different shape molds so you can make these for Valentines day too!!!
Loved that you said Jimmies yes definitely a Philly thing! Philly girl living in Jersey
Jimmies in Brooklyn too - brings me back to childhood days!
Ahhh Laura I just love watching your videos, they make me feel homey and cozy, and ready to get in the kitchen haha. Have been subscribed for years!!
So cute can I ask what size bag you used to wrap them
What a cool idea. They are so cute as gifts. I can't wait to make them. Thanks for another great idea and recipe. I love your videos. 😊
And bada bing bada boom bang bang! made me chuckle with that XD Love your channel Laura!
Looks great, I'd use peppermint sticks instead of the pop cycle. But I love the idea.
you can use a candy cane instead of a stick and then the hot chocolate gets a nice minty flavor...also
is there a difference between hot chocolate and hot cocoa?
What a great recipe!
Amazing recipe! Love myself a fast, sweet, treat!
What a cute idea!!! Looks delicious!!!
Great idea Ms. Laura. Thanks.
Do you ever eat it off of the stick? Without the milk? If not do you have stick or easy desserts like this for a party?
So if I put them in the fridge instead, how long until I put stick in? And what total setting time?
This is a great idea! Thanks, Laura!
Peppermint pieces would be perfect too. Yum!!!!! Great idea here.
nice choice of food I Love your recipe for your cooking.
Hi Laura; question for you re the chocolate; Can you use high quality candy coating for the milk and bittersweet chocolate or Baker's Chocolate for this?
Dont particularly like coconut oil. Can butter or vegetable oil be used instead?
So worth waking up at 5 am
I had this idea since August last year and you posted the video on my birthday and just noticed how cool. I made this for my bday party
I love this Laura,great to give as a gift for Christmas,looks so fun to make 😘
This looks amaze!!!! Awesome advice for making one of my favorite hot beverages.
Hi Laura, Great treat for holidays or gift! Thanks for sharing. Hope you and your family have happy, healthy holidays.
God Bless. Lucilia
Does it have to be coconut oil? Can I use vegetable oil instead?
Absolutely; any neutral, flavorless oil will work perfectly fine (vegetable, canola, grape seed) 😁
Holiday sweetness on a stick yummy...
I found this video while looking for a recipe to make hot chocolate “bombs” that are super popular on social media right now. I am going to use your video as a jumping off point to make some for our family to enjoy on Christmas Eve. Thank you for the recipe!
Lol I love you Laura "I'm impatient and I don't really care" lol Same
amazing! super clear concise and helpful :)
These look super cute and yummy!
Laura, which type of chocolate to use? I live in a tropical country so things tend to melt really fast 😂. What would your advise be? I would love to give these for Christmas!
Laura do you remember where you bought your silicone mould? Have a wonderful Christmas!!
Love this so much! Thank you!
Love that you called them jimmies.
Wonderful idea. What is everyone’s favorite holiday candy? 🍭 🍬 🍫
LOL she said 'jimmies'!! I think its a northeast thing cause im from Massachussets and thats what we call them too, not sprinkles. Love chocolate jimmies too!
Oh wow. How awesome. I love this idea
Just subscribed..love this..cant wait to try it for my son
Use a spoon instead of a stick. WIN!
Great ! Thanks Laura
She is brilliant
Great gift idea!!! And also to prepare ahead and have it ready 😁. You're the best 😙
Jimmies is a Massachusetts thing too! AND to me a dishcloth is always a mopine!!
Which chocolate is used for this compound or couverture.
Wonderful idea..... also, you can get clear coffee mugs at Dollar Tree
Ciao Laura ! I'm Italian and I really love your recipes and your videos. Sei troppo brava ;)
Laura that looks beautiful...can you show us how to make sweet chewy dinner rolls for this Christmas? please!!!!!
Love this one! I'm going to make some to give away, and some for having people over. Simple can indeed be brilliant.
We say "Jimmies" up here in Maine too!
Can you put peppermint extract? Or does it affect the way it freezes? I’m a sucker for peppermint hot chocolate lol
That’s no problem. With a candy cane instead of the stick. Delicious!
PLEASE!! Help me find the mould you used!!
Some crushed candy canes sprinkled on these would be so good!
She said jimmies! Lol no it's not just a Philly thing. Although in Rhode island we typically only refer to chocolate sprinkles as jimmies.
Thanks Laura. Very cute idea I'm having a girl night; just hanging out. It's cold now so this would be
a wonderful way to keep those who get cold warm😜
A very cute gift idea love it ❤️
Mmmm this looks amazing!! 💕
So cute and clever! Love!

What a great idea
Is this your kitchen or a prop kitchen? I have the same counter top.
I am allergic to coconut oil... anything i can replace it with?
Where did you get cello bags?
I got some silicone molds that are shaped like snowflakes and about 2 inches deep. I think they'd be beautiful for this!
