Rice Crispy Treats:
I follow the recipe on the marshmallows and then keep adding extra Rice Crispies a little at a time to make the get a little more sturdy and not so gooey.
Dipping Chocolate:
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1 Tbs shortening
I've always used almond bark but didn't have it this time and wanted to know how to make it from scratch anyway. This doesn't get as hard as almond bark or the dipping chips but is handier and taste much better.
Use the smallest microwaveable bowl you can so you can use as little chocolate as possible. The bigger the bowl the harder it is to dip and get good coverage.
Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir. Microwave another 30 seconds. Stir really well. It won't seam like its loosening at first but really work it. Chocolate scorches very easily so after that first minute in the microwave you have to be extremely careful. Microwave 10 additional seconds as needed until smooth. Again, really work it stirring after each microwave. It will loosen up much more than you think.
Add sprinkles if you like:
