The Gingerbread Man Directions

Insert sucker sticks into the bottom of the marshmallows. Now, take your butterscotch discs and put them in a microwave-safe bowl.

Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue to do this until discs are all melted.

Dip each marshmallow into the melted butterscotch discs, tap on sides to remove excess. Insert pop into the foam block.

Let cool for just a minute or two before adding your candies. This will allow the candies to stick without falling off.

Once all gingerbread pops are dry, take either your black edible marker or your white icing writer and draw the smiles on! They are ready to be served or stored in an airtight container!
