Ingredients
Lollipop sticks

Large marshmallows
40 (1 10-oz bag) (None)
Crushed graham crackers
1 1/2 cups (Crushed finely; can use pre-made crumbs if desired)
Chocolate-flavored candy coating
1 lb (1 bag) (Melted)
Instructions
1
Begin by melting the chocolate-flavored candy coating in either a microwave-safe bowl or a chocolate melting pot. If using the microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
2
While the chocolate is melting, take each large marshmallow and insert a lollipop stick into the center, ensuring it is pushed in about halfway.
3
In a separate shallow bowl, crush the graham crackers finely. Consider using a food processor for a smoother texture, or crush them by hand for more rustic pieces.
4
Once the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, dip each marshmallow stick into the chocolate, making sure to coat it generously. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
5
Immediately roll the chocolate-covered marshmallow into the bowl of crushed graham crackers, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
6
Repeat the dipping and rolling process for each marshmallow stick until they are all coated.
7
Let the coated marshmallow pops cool at room temperature until the chocolate sets. This can take about 30 minutes.
8
For gifting or storage, place each lollipop in a food-safe baggie, and tie it with a colorful ribbon for a festive touch.
9
For a personalized touch, package the treats in creatively decorated containers, such as altered paint cans or decorative boxes.
