Peppermint Bark Hot Chocolate Bombs Recipe
**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 cup of white chocolate chips
– 1 cup of hot chocolate mix
– 1 cup of mini marshmallows
– ¼ teaspoon of peppermint extract
– Crushed candy canes for garnish
– Silicone sphere mold
**Instructions:**
1. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
2. Using a spoon, evenly coat the insides of the silicone sphere mold with the melted chocolate. Make sure the chocolate is thick enough to hold its shape. Place the mold in the fridge for about 15 minutes to set.
3. Once the chocolate has hardened, carefully remove the chocolate shells from the mold.
4. In a separate bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave following the same method used for the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
5. Add the hot chocolate mix and peppermint extract to the white chocolate and mix until well combined.
6. Spoon the hot chocolate mixture into half of the chocolate shells, leaving a small border around the edges.
7. Place a generous amount of mini marshmallows on top of the hot chocolate mixture in each shell.
8. Warm a plate in the microwave for a few seconds until it’s warm to the touch. Press the edges of another chocolate shell onto the warm plate to melt slightly. Carefully press this shell onto the filled shell to seal the bombs.
9. Melt the remaining semi-sweet chocolate and use it to seal any gaps or cracks in the bombs. This will help prevent the bombs from leaking when used.
10. Drizzle the remaining white chocolate over the tops of the bombs and sprinkle with crushed candy canes for a festive touch.
11. To enjoy, place a bomb in a mug and pour over hot milk. Watch as the bomb dissolves, releasing the hot chocolate mix and marshmallows. Stir gently to combine the flavors.
12. Relax and savor the decadent blend of chocolate and peppermint flavors in this cozy winter delight.
