Step 2:: Pile the mini marshmallows in the center, then sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top.
Step 3:: Microwave on high for 30–45 seconds, or until the marshmallows are puffed and the chocolate chips are glossy but not fully melted.
Step 4:: If using, sprinkle with chopped nuts or sprinkles.
Step 5:: Serve immediately with spoons while warm and gooey.
