Hot chocolate bombs are taking the Internet by storm! Take a cute ball of chocolate, place in a mug, pour on hot milk and BOOM! The best hot chocolate you'll ever taste!
Ingredients:
- Quality chocolate: Any variety, semi-sweet, milk, or dark
- Cocoa mix: The better quality, your hot chocolate
- Marshmallows – Mini marshmallows work great, but feel free to get creative!
- A Silicone Hot Chocolate Bomb Mold
Directions:
- Microwave chocolate in 15-second increments until melted (careful not to burn it).
- With a spoon, evenly cover the interior of the mold with chocolate. Chill for several minutes.
- Remove and examine molds, applying more chocolate where needed: thin edges (if the edges are thin the spheres will break), holes, or thin spaces. If the mold is visible through the chocolate, re-layer the whole mold.
- Chill again for 5 minutes, then carefully remove half-spheres from the mold.
- Heat a small pan over low heat. Take one sphere and briefly touch the edge of the sphere against the surface of the pan to make a smooth edge (this happens quickly).
- Add 2 teaspoons of hot cocoa mix and any other add-ins you’d like.
- Take another half-sphere and quickly melt the edge on the pan. Press the filled half-sphere and the half you just melted together carefully but firmly. Line the edges up as well as you can to minimize the appearance of the seam.
- Decorate the top as desired!
