Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips divided
- 2 tablespoons multi colored mini chocolate chips or regular mini chocolate chips
- 6 tablespoons hot cocoa mix
- 1 cup mini marshmallows or other mix-ins
Instructions
- In a small, microwave safe bowl, melt 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips in 30 second increments, stirring in between. This should take 60 to 90 seconds. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in a double boiler on the stove.
- Once melted, spoon about 2 tablespoons into each half sphere and using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon, spread the chocolate around the whole sphere making sure the edges are well coated so that they are not fragile.
- Let the chocolate set in the fridge or freezer until hardened, about 10 minutes. Once set, gently remove from the molds.
- Lay 6 half spheres on a plate, with the edges face down. In a small, microwave safe bowl, melt ¼ c semi sweet chocolate chips in 30 second increments, stirring in between. This should take 30 to 60 seconds.
- Once melted, spoon into a baggie or piping bag. Snip a small corner in the bag. Drizzle one half sphere with melted chocolate. Place several mini, multicolored chocolate chips on top of the drizzle before it hardens. Repeat with 5 more half spheres.
- Let set in the fridge or freezer for 3 to 5 minutes until hardened.
- Lay the 6 remaining, plain half spheres face up on a plate. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the hot cocoa mix into each half sphere. Top with several mini marshmallows or other mix-ins.
- Warm a small, microwave safe plate in the microwave for 45 to 60 seconds. Lay decorated, empty half sphere on the plate for a couple seconds until it begins to melt the edges. This creates an even edge and a sort of glue. Connect with the corresponding, filled half sphere so that the edges meet. Repeat with the remaining 5 spheres until they are all completed. Serve and enjoy!
- To make hot cocoa - set hot cocoa ball in the bottom of a mug and pour 6 oz of hot milk or water over top until the shell has melted in, releasing the hot cocoa powder, cosmic brownie and mini marshmallows. Stir with a spoon until emulsified.
Notes
