Snowman Hot Chocolate Bombs

Make adorable Snowman Hot Chocolate Bombs the easy way. Place them in a mug, pour over with hot milk and enjoy the rich chocolate flavour.

 

What is a hot cocoa bomb?

Hot cocoa bombs are hollow balls of chocolate that you place in a mug with hot milk or water in order to make a rich and delicious hot chocolate. They usually have marshmallows and hot chocolate mix hidden inside as well.

 

The best way to use silicone sphere moulds!

Cut the silicone moulds so that each sphere mould is by itself as shown in the image above. I did this because i felt it was easier to control the mould when working with the melted chocolate

Use a paper towel or clean kitchen towel and wipe the inside of the silicone moulds. This will allow your chocolate mould to have a shiny coat on it

Snowman Hot Chocolate Bombs

Makes 8-10 Hot Cocoa Bombs

Ingredients:

2 Silicone Sphere Molds – found on amazon

1 – 30oz of Ghirardelli white Chocolate melting wafers
2 C of milk hot cocoa mix
1 tube of orange icing
1 tube of chocolate icing
2 C Mini Marshmallows
2 disposable piping bag
1 cookie sheet fitted with wax paper

Directions:

Using a heat safe bowl, pour into the bowl and place the remaining of the ghirardelli melting wafers in the microwave for 45 second intervals. Make sure to stir the chocolate after each 45 seconds until completely melted and smooth.

Using a spoon, spoon about 1-2 tbsp of the chocolate into the mould

Carefully swirl the chocolate to completely coat the inside of the mould

Lightly shake the extra chocolate back into the bowl

Place the coated moulds into the fridge for 5-10 minutes

 

 

Remove from the fridge and gently peel the silicone mould back away from the hardened chocolate shell

Carefully place the mould onto the cookie sheet

Repeat steps with remaining moulds

You should now have 8 half sphere moulds

Scoop some of the melted chocolate into the piping bag and cut the tip

 

Scoop about 1 tbsp of the hot cocoa mix into the bottom of the sphere mould

 

 

Sprinkle in a few of the mini marshmallows

Pipe a line of the melted chocolate around the edge of the bottom shell

Carefully place the top shell onto the bottom and gently hold the top to the bottom for about 30 seconds to a minute to allow the piped chocolate to harden to the top shell

Carefully pick up the bomb and make sure that there is no opening around the centre of the shells

Place the mould back onto the cutting board

Scoop some orange icing into one piping bag

Scoop some chocolate icing into the second piping bag

Cut the tips off both piping bags and decorate your snowman cocoa bomb
