HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS FOR VALENTINE’S DAY RECIPE
Chocolate spheres filled with creamy cocoa mix! Yum!
Equipment
- Silicone molds
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Pink Melting Wafers
- 1/2 cup each of Chocolate Chips & White Melting Wafers you can use white chocolate chips for the white drizzle if you prefer
- 1 tbsp per bomb Hot Chocolate Mix approximately a tablespoon per bomb
- Dehydrated Marshmallows you can also substitute with regular mini marshmallows if desired
- Various Valentine’s Day Sprinkles
Instructions
- Using a Wilton melting pot, or bowl and the microwave, heat your pink melting wafers until smooth. If you are using the microwave you will want to do this in 30-second increments and stir in between.
- Once your wafers are melted you will want to coat your silicone molds, making sure that all of the sides and bottom is well coated. You can use a spoon for this process but another good option is a decorating brush made for baking.
- Melting wafers don’t take long at all to set up but you can place the mold in the fridge and allow for the candy to set if you wish. This will take approximately 15 minutes.
- Once your bomb halves have set you can then pop them out of the molds and fill them with the hot chocolate contents. Which for this set are regular hot chocolate mix and mini dehydrated marshmallows.
- Using a plate heated by the microwave, or a pan on the stove, melt the rim of an empty pink wafer side and place it on top of one of the filled sides. Allow it to set up again.
- Using piping pages or a filled Ziploc bag, drizzle on your chocolate and white wafer drizzle. Allow each drizzle to set before doing the additional one.
- Before the final drizzle sets apply your sprinkles. Allow everything to set up once again.
Notes
To make the hot chocolate add 1 hot chocolate bomb to a mug and pour 8-10 ounces of milk over top. Stir until melted. If you are using bigger molds, you will need to use more melting wafers.
