What is a hot chocolate bomb?

Apparently, Tik Tok has made them all the rage these days.

I had no idea what they were, so I researched.

Traditional hot chocolate bombs are hollow shells of chocolate filled with hot chocolate and marshmallows.

Once dropped into a mug of hot milk, they burst open and the contents of hot chocolate mix spills out to be stirred into a hot drink.

These hot chocolate bombs have heartwarming mocha flavor with a hint of cinnamon. Added as the main event of these mocha hot chocolate bombs, they are DEE-licious!

Ingredients you’ll need (for 4 hot chocolate bombs):

• 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 tsp. butter
• fireside coffee mix (recipe below)

Supplies you’ll need for making hot chocolate bombs:

1. Make the fireside coffee mix (recipe below).
2. Set 8 silicone molds on a pan that can be moved to the fridge or freezer.

4. Using a teaspoon, coat the insides and sides of the silicon molds well.
5. Place the filled molds in the fridge or freezer until they are set completely.
6. Once set, carefully peel the molds off each of the chocolates.
7. Fill 4 halves with 1 1/2 Tablespoons fireside coffee mix – “piling” it high in the middle.
8. Pour boiling water over a small plate to warm it up, and dry it off well with a towel.
