- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/4 cup hot cocoa mix
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- Optional: sprinkles or edible glitter
- Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate into a silicone mold (spherical molds work best).
- Coat the inside of each mold cavity with chocolate, ensuring an even layer.
- Place the mold in the freezer for about 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
- While the chocolate sets, melt the white chocolate chips in a separate bowl using the same method as above.
- Remove the mold from the freezer. Gently peel away the silicone to reveal your chocolate shells.
- Fill half of the chocolate shells with a mixture of hot cocoa mix and powdered sugar.
- Place a few mini marshmallows on top of the cocoa mix in each filled shell.
- Warm the rim of the empty chocolate shells by placing them on a warm plate for a few seconds.
- Carefully place an empty shell on top of a filled shell to seal the bomb.
- If desired, decorate the outside with sprinkles or edible glitter.
- To use, place a hot cocoa bomb in a mug and pour hot milk over it. Stir until the bomb melts and the marshmallows are released.
Notes
- Use good quality chocolate for the best results.
- Ensure your mold is completely dry before adding chocolate.
- Work quickly when sealing the bombs to prevent the chocolate from melting.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate or a combination of chocolates.
