Cut dough lengthwise into three (3 1/2-inch wide) strips, using a pizza cutter or pastry wheel. Cut dough crosswise into 1-inch strips. Place onto prepared baking sheets.
Bake 9-12 minutes or until edges are deep golden brown. Cool completely.
Place chocolate chips in bowl. Microwave on Medium (50% power), stirring every minute, 2-3 minutes or until smooth.
Spread melted chocolate onto lower third of cookie sticks; sprinkle with crunchy marshmallow bits. Place cookies onto waxed or parchment paper until set.



- Five spice powder is a mixture of cinnamon, cloves, fennel, star anise and Szechuan peppercorns. 

- Reheat chocolate in microwave if it starts to thicken during decorating. 

- To set chocolate quickly, place decorated sticks in refrigerator 30 minutes.
