- Hey everyone, my name is Malia Baker.
I play Mary Anne Spier on the Netflix series,
"The Baby-Sitters Club."
And today, you all are gonna be joining me
in making some hot chocolate stirrers.
The ingredients for making these chocolate stirrers
is some spoons; I got seven spoons for seven BSC girls.
(popping) (bright rock music)
Candy canes for decorations on top.
Christmas sprinkles, but you guys can choose
whatever you'd like to put on top of your stirrers.
Marshmallows; I decided to go baby for this recipe,
so baby marshmallows right here.
A mug so you can stir your hot chocolate in,
and some chocolate.
I just ended up crushing the chocolate into a bowl
so that we can end up melting it later
in the process of this recipe.
So first, what we're gonna be doing
is melting our chocolate.
Remember, you should have your parent or guardian
or whoever is able to use all of these appliances
in your kitchen with you right now so I can do this safely.
I'm just gonna be heating this chocolate up
so it's all nice and melted.
And again, you can either do that
on the stove or in the microwave.
I'm gonna pop it in the microwave
'cause it seems easiest right now.
I'm just gonna pop 'em in for 45 seconds first.

Now, the next step is grabbing your spoons.
And you're going to dip them inside of the chocolate.
Dip them inside the chocolate.
From there, you're going to grab a pan.
Something to cover the pan.
I'm gonna be using saran wrap,
but you should use parchment paper if you have that.
You go, one spoon.
And you're just gonna rotate with
whatever chocolates you chose.
Right now, I'm gonna do the dark chocolate.
Here we go, now here comes the fun part.
You are going to choose any of your decorations.
For me, I have the candy canes, my marshmallows,
some sprinkles, more sprinkles.
All the sprinkles, there we go.
Grab a spoon for my candy canes
and it's already in a package, so (bangs).
They're broke. (bangs)
(laughing) I think that's enough for me right now.
Grabbing my candy canes right now
and I'm gonna put them on the mint ones
'cause I feel like it would taste good.
You know, mint on mint?
Here we go, I'm gonna grab my marshmallows as well.
Okay, I'm putting like three on mine.
It doesn't have to look pretty.
I grabbed like the perfect amount, oh my gosh.
I'm gonna put some sprinkles, just to make it look pretty.
(upbeat, festive music)
And from here, you're gonna put your stirrers
in the freezer, or you can leave them out.
I'm just gonna do it in the freezer
'cause it's faster that way.
I'm gonna estimate around 30 minutes
is what it's gonna to freeze these people.
People, these things right here.
All right, here we have the finished hot chocolate stirrers.
Let's take them off of (chuckles) the tray, one moment.
Cool, so this is what they both look like.
If you can actually see that.
Yeah, okay. (laughs)
Now, we are going to make one.
Fun part is that you can gift these to people
if you'd like, or you can just make them
for yourselves at home, your friends and family.
So here's how you make it; I'm gonna heat up some milk.
I have oat milk, so I'm gonna heat
up some oat milk into this mug.
Then, I'm going to put this in and stir it,
and I'll show you guys what it looks like.

I want to do a dark chocolate peppermint one.
Oh, I'm so excited!
Okay, now we just stir.
Okay.
It's hot. (chuckles)
That's really tasty, oh my gosh.
Anyway, here we go, cheers.
Have a hot chocolate with me, nice and steamy.
I'm Malia Baker, I hope you guys enjoyed making
some hot chocolate stirrers with me,
and I'll see you next time.
