Instructions
Best way to make Hot Chocolate Bombs
Fill molds with melting chocolate, freeze the entire silicon mold. Once solid, remove from freezer and layer one more time with chocolate and freeze. This gives a double thick layer of chocolate so the shells are not too weak or brittle.
Remove semi-circle halves carefully from molds and fill one side of chocolate sphere with marshmallows, instant cocoa powdered, colored marshmallows or whatever inner fillings you want! (see article for suggestions)
Sealing Chocolate Edges
Heat a non-stick skillet on LOW for a few seconds.
Option 1: Add one side of a chocolate semi-circle warm on the skillet for about 1-2 seconds to melt the edges and then press both sides of the chocolate semi-circles together to form a whole circle. Using a skillet or griddle is the smoothest way to get seamless edges but also require the most care not to burn yourself. Option 2: The other option to seal edges is to pipe a small amount of warm melting chocolate on edges an seal together. This works best if kids are involved in assembling. Simply decorate the seams later on to hide them with chocolate drizzle.
Place hot chocolate bombs in freezer for an additional 5 minutes to completely freeze together. Proceed with decoration.
Place in hot milk or hot cocoa and watch melt and "explode" marshmallows and powder.
