Hot Chocolate Bombs Recipe
I am in Heaven since I found out about these Hot Chocolate Bombs. Wow what a wonderful treat these are.
You can easily DIY these rainbow sprinkles hot chocolate bombs yourself, or give them as a gift or even just a treat for yourself and family.
If you are like me and enjoy making this sort of thing and get the kids involved, although the little ones might struggle a little bit as they are quite delicate but they could put them in the hot milk and just watch their little faces light up when they see them explode.
When you pour hot milk over them or drop them slowly into hot milk they melt and magically you will see the marshmallows and hot cocoa ooze out of them.
What is a Hot Chocolate Bomb?
These Hot Chocolate Bombs with rainbow sprinkles are a hollow chocolate shell filled with hot cocoa mix and marshmallows. (some people also add sprinkles inside.) You then place them in a mug, pour on hot milk and watch the marshmallows float to the top and the chocolate melt. Give it a quick stir and you’ll have a lovely yummy cozy warm cup of chocolatey goodness.
Where can I buy hot chocolate bombs?
So if you are not planning on making these yourself then don despair you can but these on etsy or you can probably find someone local who makes them.

Place the silicone molds in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes. You want your chocolate to be completely frozen – It will be easier to manipulate
Carefully remove the chocolate half-spheres from the mold and place them on the baking sheet
Fill one of the half-spheres with hot chocolate mix. Add a few mini marshmallows into each of the half-spheres you can add sprinkles here if you like as well totally up to you, or some mini chocolate smarties or M&M’s
Warm-up an empty plate by putting it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Place one of the empty chocolate sides on the warm plate to slightly melt the edges then quickly place it on top of the other side already filled with hot chocolate mix. Repeat for the remaining pieces
