Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Melt the Chocolate: Place white chocolate and vegetable shortening in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short bursts of 20 seconds, stirring in between, until smooth—about 1-2 minutes total.
  2. Assemble the Base: Dip the bottom of a large marshmallow into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's well-coated. Press this marshmallow onto a lined baking sheet to create the base.
  3. Stack More Marshmallows: Dip two more large marshmallows into chocolate, stack them on top of the base one, using melted chocolate as glue. Let sit for another 5-10 minutes.
  4. Coat the Entire Figure: Coat the entire stacked marshmallow figure in a layer of melted chocolate for an even coating.
  5. Add Decorative Features: While the chocolate layer is still wet, attach candy eyes by gently pressing them onto your marshmallow figure.
  6. Final Touches: Dust with powdered sugar and use a black edible marker to draw a cheerful smile on the front of the figure.
  7. Serve and Delight: Arrange the completed marshmallows on a platter or wrap them for gifts. Enjoy within a few days!
