Lime Marshmallow Pops

Here is another quick and easy lime recipe that would be great for St Patrick’s Day.  I love these little marshmallow pops, but I have to admit that I ate most of the marshmallows before I ever got around to making them.  

Lime Marshmallow Pops

Ingredients:

Key Lime marshmallows

Vanilla candy coating (I used Almond Bark)

Lime Jello mix (add desired amount to taste or leave it out)

Colored sugar

Lollipop sticks

  

*I used 12 ounces of candy coating and 3 tablespoons of lime Jello.

Put a lollipop stick into each marshmallow. In a small glass dish, melt candy coating in microwave until completely melted. Add lime Jello powder and stir until all of the Jello is dissolved. Pick up the pop by the stick and dip the marshmallow into the candy coating and cover evenly.  Sprinkle with colored sugar and place on wax paper to cool . Store the marshmallow pops in a sealed container.

Spray paint any heart shaped candy box green.  Let it dry completely.

Turn the lid upside down and trace it onto the back of a piece of patterned scrapbooking paper. Cut it out and glue to top of lid.

Use glue to attach the ribbon to the top of the box.

Attach the ends of the ribbon to the inside of the box.
