Hot Chocolate Bombs

Hot Chocolate Bombs

Special Supplies:

*Semi Silicon Mold or Molds, I used the medium-large 6 cavity semi mold, found on Amazon Note: Make sure you have large enough mugs to fit the size of chocolate bombs you make!

Ingredients:

*Ghiridelli Chocolate Melting Wafers (Start with melting 1 cup of the wafers at a time in the microwave in 30 second increments stirring between increments just until melted) I like Ghirardelli (melt more wafers as needed for desired amount, 1 cup makes around 3 hot chocolate Bombs)

Making the Chocolate Bombs

After melting the wafers, spoon the melted chocolate into individual cavity spreading to the top of cavity using spoon. Repeat for each cavity. Refrigerate just until set. About 5 minutes. Then repeat this process again with the second chocolate layer.

When Second layer has set remove from the mold with the hardened chocolate and carefully remove each chocolate. Set aside while you prepare toppings.

Note: Make sure all your fillings and hot chocolate mixes are prepared and ready to add to your chocolate bombs before you start to assemble chocolate bombs.

Warm a small frying pan on stove slightly, not to hot, just until warm remove from heat, you may have to repeat this a few times if making more than 3 bombs.

Take one of the your chocolate mold halves and place the edge side down onto the warm not hot frying pan and allow the edge to melt slightly. Then remove and add fillings of your choice. Set aside, and heat a second mold half melting the edges the same as you did the first one on the warm frying pan and put together with the melted edges of your first filled chocolate half. Hold for 15 seconds to make sure it sets. If needed you can add extra chocolate around the connected/seam. Rub off excess chocolate if needed with a soft lint free dish towel. Careful not to handle the chocolate bomb to much for melting purposes and finger prints etc…

Hot Chocolate Filling

Note: If you want to use hot chocolate packets, I found that almost 1/2 a package in each hot chocolate bomb and then add the desired marshmallows, candies and etc…
