The Supplies:

For the marshmallows:

Lay out all the marshmallows in a thin, even layer and spray bursts of several colors of food coloring mist onto the marshmallows.

Let the marshmallows sit for a few minutes to let the color dry, then mix them up for the prettiest marshmallows you ever did see.

    Honestly there is probably no more food color in a cup of this cocoa than there is in 3-4 starbursts or a decorated sugar cookie. But, just because I am showing how to make it doesn't mean you have to make it or drink it.
