How to Make White Hot Chocolate Bombs
If you’re new to cocoa bombs, here are some quick instructions to understand the process. Before we get started, just a quick note. It is absolutely okay to make a few mistakes. It will happen. Practice makes perfect! But I promise you, once you get the hang of it, you will be rolling out the hot chocolate bombs.
First, you will want to place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Then microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate chips are fully melted.
Put a spoonful of melted chocolate inside one cup on the silicone mold and use the back of the spoon to spread the chocolate up the sides of the mold.
Continue this process until all the molds are coated. Set the remaining chocolate aside for sealing and decorating the bombs.
This is important; allow the chocolate to set completely, around 2 to 3 hours. You can speed up the process by placing the chocolate in the refrigerator. But make sure before moving on to the next step that your chocolate is set.
Filling your White Chocolate Cups
When the chocolate is set, remove each of the chocolate pieces from the mold. Add a small amount of instant hot cocoa mix to half the pieces.
Then top the hot cocoa mix with marshmallows. Rainbow marshmallows speak spring to me. You can choose rainbow or white. The choice is yours.
Putting your cups together
Reheat the chocolate in 15-second intervals until melted. Pick up an empty chocolate piece and dip the edges into the melted chocolate.
Carefully place it on top of a filled piece and lightly press it into place. Use your finger to smooth the melted chocolate around the seam. Continue until all the chocolate bombs are sealed.
Next is the fun part. Let’s brighten up our hot chocolate bombs with color. Drizzle the chocolate over the top of the bombs and decorate with Spring sprinkles. You will want to allow the chocolate decorations to set before using, around 1 hour.
To Make Hot Chocolate Bombs
Take one of your newly made cocoa bombs, and place it in the bottom of a mug. Pour one cup of hot milk over the top of the bomb to melt the chocolate. When the chocolate is completely melted, stir to combine.
Quick Kitchen Tips
- If you only have one hot chocolate bomb mold holding about 6 half domes, then I recommend melting half the chocolate at a time. Otherwise, you will need to chill the molds to let the chocolate harden, with only 1 mold, this will take more time. However, if you have the above-suggested mold, then you can melt the chocolate all at once.
- Tempering your own chocolate – chocolate wafers are great. However, I tried both Michael’s brand and Ghirardelli wafers. I did find that the Ghirardelli wafers were easier to work with.
- If you decide you want to color your white hot chocolate bombs, stay away from regular food coloring. It has more water content and will turn your chocolate into a gross mess. Stick with using a gel dye. I prefer the brand Americolor.
