Parchment Paper 2 oz Disposable Cups Xacto Knife or Scissors Piping Bag Cutting Board Small Microwavable Bowls Colorful Paper Straws or Cake Pop Sticks (cut into thirds) 2 oz chocolate candy melts, or melting wafers (don’t melt all of them) 1 oz red candy melts Hot Chocolate Mix (try our Homemade Hot Chocolate mix) 7-10 mini marshmallows Holiday sprinkles (optional)"
-
Melt down chocolates according to package instructions. Do not over melt, they can burn. If you need to thin out the candy melts add a small amount of coconut oil until it’s a pourable consistency. Place the plastic cups upside down on a cutting board and use the Xacto knife or scissors to cut a vertical line down the center of the cup. (This will help with easy mold release later).
-
Pour the melted chocolate into the cups and twist to allow the chocolate to get on the sides of the cup.
-
Turn the cup upside down on a piece of parchment to allow any extra chocolate to drip down. (The amount of chocolate in each cup can vary at this point). Place the cups in the freezer for 7-9 mins to set. Remove from the freezer. Add 1 tbsp hot cocoa mix to each cup.
-
Add red melted chocolate until the cup is ¾ full.
-
Return to the freezer to harden for 18-25 mins. Carefully peel off the cup, starting at the original long slit in the side. Make additional cuts as needed. Add a small amount of melted chocolate to the top, add mini marshmallows, colorful sticks/straws, and sprinkles. Place two unmelted candy melts on top to look like Mickey’s ears. Use melted red chocolate in a piping bag to decorate the outside of your hot chocolate bombs. Add more sprinkles and marshmallows to the chocolate.
-
Return to the freezer for a final set (about 7-8 mins).
