Hot Chocolate Bombs!

Baby… it’s cold outside!!!!

These White chocolate snowballs warm you up in one instant. They are referred to more commonly as Hot Chocolate bombs. A hollow chocolate sphere that is filled with cocoa, marshmallows and sprinkles. They are a huge hit as they are simple to make and super fun to put into a mug and pour warm milk over. Then you sit back and watch them melt into the milk and the marshmallows come flying up to the top of the mug.

We also experimented with different types of chocolates and the clear winner is Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate Melting Wafers and White Chocolate Melting Wafers. They are easier to handle. Which comes in handy when you push the bombs out of the mold. 

Listen up,  if you want a bit of a challenge then use any kind of chocolate, we have used semi-sweet chocolate chips and it works. Make sure the layer is thick and be prepared because the finer the chocolate the more it will melt in your hands! You don't want fingerprints on these beauties. 

Another tip is to place the spheres into a silicone cupcake holder. This assures there is no extra handling until the ball is actually dropped into the mug.
