Insert a lollipop stick or skewer into each marshmallow, taking care not to push it all the way through.
Prepare a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper on a flat surface for the dipped marshmallows to cool and set.
Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval, until smooth and fully melted. Optionally, stir in 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to thin the chocolate for easier dipping.
Pour your chosen toppings (sprinkles, nuts, coconut, or crushed cookies) into small, separate bowls for easy access.
Holding the stick, dip each marshmallow into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is coated to your desired level (you can coat it halfway or completely). Let the excess chocolate drip off gently.
While the chocolate is still wet, immediately roll or sprinkle the marshmallow with your choice of toppings.
Place the dipped marshmallow stick-down onto the prepared wax paper or parchment paper.
Repeat with the remaining marshmallows, chocolate, and toppings.
Allow the dipped marshmallows to set at room temperature for about 1 hour, or place them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to speed up the process.
Once set, serve and enjoy your dipped marshmallows! Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
