Instructions

Trim the BBQ skewers by a few inches using the kitchen scissors.
Skewer (3) large marshmallows onto the base of each skewer.
Pour 6 oz of the Wilton chocolate candy melts into a microwave-safe dish and heat in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring occasionally until melted.
Remove from the oven and let cool a few minutes.
Attach one frosting tip to a disposable piping bag and scoop the melted chocolate into the bag.
Gently squeeze the chocolate from the bag giving the reindeer 2 eyes and 2 antlers.
Repeat with all reindeer.
Add a small handful of red candy melts to a microwave-safe dish and heat in 30-second increments, stirring until melted.
Remove from the microwave and let cool a few minutes.
Attach the 2nd frosting tip and scoop the melted red chocolate into the disposable piping bag.
Gently squeeze the red chocolate from the bag to form the reindeer's nose.
Repeat with each reindeer and allow the chocolate to set.
Once the chocolate has set give each reindeer a scarf using the Wilton colored icing (no special tip needed).
Serve with hot cocoa or wrap in a cute holiday baggy and give as a gift with hot cocoa!
