Ingredients Needed to Make Valentine’s Hot Cocoa Bombs
- 1 ½ Cups Chocolate Chips or Chocolate Melting Wafers
- ½ Cup Each White & Pink Melting Wafers (you can use white chocolate chips for the white drizzle if you prefer)
- 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
- You will also need silicone molds
How to Make Valentines Hot Cocoa Bombs
Step 1: Using a bowl and the microwave, heat your chocolate chips in 30-second increments until your chocolate is melted and smooth.
Step 2: Once your chocolate is 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.
Step 3. Place the mold in the fridge and allow for the chocolate to set up. This will take approximately 30 minutes to an hour depending on the type of chocolate you have used.
Step 4: Once your chocolate bombs 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.
Step 5: Using a plate heated by the microwave, or a pan on the stove, melt the rim of an empty chocolate side and place it on top of one of the filled sides. Allow the chocolate to set.
Step 6: Using piping pages or a filled Ziploc bag, drizzle on your white and pink chocolate. Allow each drizzle to set before doing the additional one.
Step 7: Before the final drizzle sets apply your sprinkles. Allow everything to set up again.
Step 8: 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.

Notes
If you are using bigger molds, you will need to use more chocolate. Real chocolate tends to get melty when it starts to come to room temperature so it is highly recommended that you allow it to sit in the fridge between each process.
