The Perfect Dessert Topper

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Hershey Company for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

Our very favorite thing to do during the holidays is bake!  We put on the festive music, tie the aprons and get to work on those sweet treats.  Baking during the holidays is one of my favorite memories as a kid and probably my favorite to pass onto my own kids. 

This year I found the most adorable dessert topper.  The perfect little accessory for any cookie, brownie, marshmallow pop, cupcake.  I cannot get over these little cuties, HERSHEY’S KISSES Santa Hat Chocolates

You name it and these little buddies will add that special festive holiday touch! 

I found them near the checkout line and also in the holiday section exclusively at Target. 

We added them on top of marshmallow pops.  The kiddos had a blast making them and of course eating along the way. 

All you need are a bag of HERSHEY'S KISSES Santa Hat Chocolates, marshmallows, red chocolate melts, and lollipop sticks

Melt the red chocolate in the microwave or double boiler.  Get the items ready to assemble.

And put those little elves to work...

Dip the marshmallow halfway into the chocolate.  Then dip the stick into the chocolate and insert it.  Once the marshmallows are cool, dip the HERSHEY'S KISSES Santa Hat Chocolates into the red chocolate and put them on top. 

This little elf is a pro.  She's been baking with mama since before she could walk.  

While this little elf in training got a little distracted.  But how can you resist eating once you know what goodness is hiding inside these little Santa hats?!

So simple to make and in no time you have the cutest little Santa marshmallow pops. 

Now this next dessert is for those of you who love chocolate and mint.  If you are a lover of this combo, I'm about to knock your socks off with these HERSHEY'S KISSES Santa Hat Chocolates mint brownie bites. 

Mix up your favorite brownie recipe and load them up into a mini muffin pan.  Take some of these yummy HERSHEY'S KISSES Dark Chocolates Filled with Mint Truffle and press them into the center of each mini brownie. 

Bake and allow them to cool.  Melt some chocolate, dip the HERSHEY'S KISSES Santa Hat Chocolates and place them on top of the brownie bites. 

How much more adorable are these little bites with those Santa hats on them?!

Too cute and filled with the yummiest surprise!  This is truly a match made in heaven. 

They make the perfect little home made gifts for teachers, neighbors, family or friends.
