  • 1 drop green food coloring gel
  • 1 drop red food coloring gel

Equipment

  • Large saucepan
  • Large mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Add chocolate and butter to saucepan and gently melt over low to medium heat. Add mini marshmallows and stir until melted and combined.

  3. Using tablespoon, divide mixture into equal amounts and roll each into pudding ball shape with slightly damp hands.
  4. Place on baking tray lined with parchment paper. Chill puddings in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  5. Melt white chocolate in heatproof bowl over simmering water or in microwave. Place in piping bag and set aside to cool.
  6. Color white sugarpaste with red and green food coloring gels. Use green for holly leaves and roll red into small balls for berries.
  7. When puddings are chilled, snip end off piping bag and drizzle white chocolate over tops. Decorate with sugarpaste holly leaves and berries.

Notes

Use gentle low heat to prevent mixture from becoming hard. Dampen hands when rolling to prevent sticking. Store in refrigerator up to 1 week or freeze up to 6 weeks.
