These hot chocolate bombs are a fun and festive way to make a rich and decadent cup of hot chocolate. Simply pour hot milk over them and watch them melt!
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Or melt using a double boiler.
Brush the melted chocolate into silicone sphere molds, coating the sides and bottom. Let the chocolate set in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes.
Apply a second coat of chocolate to the molds and let them set again in the refrigerator until completely firm.
Carefully remove the chocolate spheres from the molds.
Fill half of the chocolate spheres with the hot chocolate mix, marshmallows, and powdered sugar. If using, add sprinkles or other desired fillings.
Warm the rim of an empty chocolate sphere on a warm plate or skillet for a few seconds. Immediately press it onto a filled sphere to create a sealed bomb.
Decorate the sealed bombs with extra melted chocolate, sprinkles, or edible glitter if desired. Let them set.
To serve, place a hot chocolate bomb in a mug and pour about 8-10 ounces of hot milk over it. Stir until the bomb is fully melted and the hot chocolate is combined.
Notes
Store leftover hot chocolate bombs in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
