Prepare a large casserole dish by greasing it and/or lining it with parchment paper.

Cut into small rectangles.

Dip the tops into melted chocolate (you can use candy Melts for this for chocolate chips with a little oithen palce on a piece of parchment to set. You can put them in the fridge to speed up the cooling. Add chocolate sprinkles if you want!

Place on candy eyes (I used some melted chocolate as "glue" for everything), Pocky stick unibrows and rolos! Last, draw on mouths using your black food gel.
Recipe Notes
You can melt your butter and marshmallows over the stove OR in the microwave, I always prefer using the microwave because it's easier and faster for me.
