Preparation:
Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper.
Spread peanut butter on 1/2 of the crackers. Spread marshmallow
cream on the remaining crackers. Put the two halves together
to form a sandwich; set aside.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and the
vegetable shortening. Place chocolate/vegetable shortening, uncovered, in the microwave for 30
seconds at a time on medium power until the chocolate is melted.
Be very careful not to overheat it, as the
chocolate may not look as if it has completely melted, because it
retains its shape. You may still see lumps in it once you've stirred
it, but don't worry; the residual heat of the chocolate will melt
it. Do not rely on appearance alone when microwaving
chocolate. The only way to know if the chocolate is fully melted is to gently stir it. Use a rubber spatula to
stir the melting chocolate. NOTE: Do not
leave in microwave until all the chocolate is melted. Learn different methods on
How To Melt Chocolate.
Dip your prepared sandwiches into the melted chocolate and place on
the prepared cookie sheet. Top each sandwich with 3 Pink Sugar Pearls or decorate
as you desire.
