Method
- Place the silicone mold on a flat, moveable surface like a tray or cutting board.
- Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe container like a glass measuring cup and microwave at 50% power in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each time until melted.
- Add a heaping tablespoon of melted chocolate to each well of the silicone mold. Spread the chocolate up the sides of the mold until completely coated.
- Wait about 5 minutes for the chocolate to cool a bit and then divide the remaining chocolate between all of the wells and spread it around to give each of them a thicker coat.
- Place the mold, while on the tray, in the freezer for the chocolate to set for at least 30 minutes.
- Once the chocolate has set, remove from the freezer. Carefully use your fingers to push the chocolate cup out of the mold. Place the chocolate cups on a plate.
- Place the drink mix, marshmallows, and any other add-ins you are including in 3 of the chocolate cups.
- Working quickly, place one of the empty cups open-side down on a hot plate to melt the edges a bit. Then place it on the filled half of the sphere and press lightly.
- Melt the decorating chocolate and then transfer it to a piping bag or decorating squeeze bottle. Pipe a thin ribbon of chocolate around the seam of the spheres and then drizzle the melted chocolate over the tops of the bombs.
- Sprinkle with decorations and allow the chocolate to set before moving. Keep refrigerated or frozen until ready to use.
- To make the hot chocolate: Place the bomb in an empty mug and top with 8 ounces of hot milk. Stir well before enjoying.
- To make homemade hot chocolate powder: Combine all of the ingredients (sugar, cocoa powder, white chocolate, and powdered milk) in a small bowl. Stir to combine. Set aside until ready to use.
Notes
*The easiest way to heat the plate is to run it under hot water. *If the chocolate isn’t melting well, add about 1 tsp of coconut oil and stir. *You can add additional toppings like whipped cream, additional marshmallows, and sprinkles if desired. *I highly recommend using chocolate bark because it melts and rehardens easily and smoothly. *I wear gloves when making the hot chocolate bombs so I don’t leave any fingerprints on the outside.
