use the directions on the chocolate melts the bag to melt the candy melts until smooth in a shallow bowl

*I typically use a glass microwave-proof bowl and microwave my melts for 1 minute and stir. If needed, I pop them back in for an additional 30 seconds and stir until smooth

set out a cookie for your treat to sit on top of - I flipped my striped cookie around so the fudge bottom was now the top

cut a mini candy cane at the base of the crook (the curved section) leaving 2 parts, the curved part, and a straight candy stick

push the curved part of the candy cane into the side of the marshmallow as a mug handle

use that handle to hold the marshmallow while you dip it into the chocolate - only covering the bottom and top of the marshmallow

place one end of your chocolate topped marshmallow onto the cookie so the chocolate can act as  glue

next, push the other half of the candy can at a slight angle into the chocolate top - representing a candy stick coming out of your mug

add some dehydrated marshmallow bits to the melted chocolate

optional - use a toothpick to grab some melted chocolate and glue the candy sprinkle decorations onto the front of your mug

*hold the sprinkles in place until the chocolate has dried enough to set
