Description

Celebrate Halloween with these fun and festive Halloween Hot Chocolate Bombs featuring colorful black and orange candy melts. These chocolate spheres are filled with hot chocolate mix and marshmallows, perfect for a cozy and spooky treat. Simply place a bomb in a mug and pour hot milk to watch it melt and release a rich, creamy hot chocolate inside.

Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Shell

  • 1 cup black chocolate candy melts (Sweet Tooth Fairy)
  • 1 cup orange candy melts (Sweet Tooth Fairy)

Filling

  • 6 tablespoons hot chocolate mix (Swiss Miss)
  • 16 marshmallows

Equipment

  • Dome mold
  • Frying pan

Instructions

  1. Melt Candy Melts: Melt the black and orange candy melts separately according to the package instructions, making sure they are smooth and lump-free.
  2. Coat Mold: Drop black candy melts in two spots inside the dome mold. Then drop orange candy melts on the opposite sides. Use the back of a spoon to lightly swirl and evenly coat the inside of each dome mold, ensuring full coverage with no thin spots.
  3. Freeze Shells: Place the coated molds in the freezer for 10 minutes to harden the chocolate shells completely.
  4. Remove Domes: Carefully pop out the hardened chocolate domes from the molds and set them aside on a flat surface.
  5. Smooth Edges on Stove: Heat a frying pan over low heat. Place one chocolate dome edge-down on the pan just long enough to slightly melt the edges to create a smooth surface for sealing.
  6. Fill Bombs: Fill the slightly melted dome with 2 tablespoons of hot chocolate mix and a few marshmallows (about 4 marshmallows per bomb).
  7. Seal Bombs: Quickly heat the edge of another dome and place it on top of the filled one, aligning edges carefully to seal the bomb shut. Repeat for the remaining bombs.
  8. Store: Keep the hot chocolate bombs in the refrigerator until ready to use. For longer storage, place them in the freezer for up to one month.

Notes

  • Ensure that the candy melts are fully hardened before removing from the molds to prevent cracking.
  • Be careful when heating the edges of the domes on the pan to avoid melting too much chocolate.
  • Use a dome mold that fits your desired bomb size for best results.
  • These bombs can be served by placing one in a mug and pouring hot milk over it to melt and enjoy.
  • Store unused bombs in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
