  How to Make the Hot Chocolate Bombs

   

  Step 1: Chop 24 ounces of chocolate into very fine pieces. Keep chopping until there are no big chunks left.

  Step 2: Heat the chocolate in the microwave for 30 seconds (no longer!).

  Step 3: Stir your chocolate with a spatula, scraping any chocolate off the sides of the container and moving all chocolate to the middle.

  Step 4: Place back into the microwave and heat for another 15 seconds.

  Step 5: Stir again in the same way as step 3.

  Step 6: Check the temperature of your chocolate, which should be no more than 90ºF.

  Step 7: Repeat steps 4, 5, and 6 until your chocolate is completely melted and never higher than 90ºF.

  Step 8: Pour the chocolate onto the parchment paper and place it in the fridge for 5 minutes.

  Step 9: Check that your chocolate is shiny and snaps loudly when you break it in half. If so, then it’s ready for your molds!

   

  If not, it may have been heated too much. You can then add 6 more ounces of chocolate and stir until it’s all melted to rectify.

   

  Placing Your Chocolate into the Mold

   

  Step 1: Paint a thin layer of chocolate inside of the clean and residue-free mold.

  Step 2: Put into the fridge for 5 minutes.

  Step 3: Apply a second coat of chocolate.

  Step 4: Repeat step 2.

  Step 5: Release your chocolate from the mold.

   

  Assembling Your Chocolate Bombs

   

  Step 1: Put your first half of the sphere into something that will hold it steady. Fill about three-quarters of it with hot chocolate mix and mini-marshmallows.

  Step 2: Use your piping bag to put melted chocolate onto the space that’s left.

  Step 3: Clean off any excess for a seamless look.

  Step 4: Roll in sprinkles or other decorations to finish.

  Step 5: Enjoy!
