S'mores Hot Chocolate Bombs

Hot chocolate bombs are spheres of chocolate filled with delicious hot cocoa powder and other delicious fillings. 

In this case, I made S'mores hot chocolate bombs. As the name indicates they are full of chocolate, marshmallows and graham cracker crumbs.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR S'MORES FLAVORED HOT COCOA BOMBS 

I think the key to these S'mores bombs is the S'more's flavored hot cocoa mix. Somehow they're able to crush the crackers so finely that there's not any chunks of graham crackers that would get soggy and be just plain weird to drink.

I did crush a few graham cracker to make crumbs for garnishing, but I didn't add any to the innards of the bomb. There was enough graham flavor in the mix.

Also, I find the dehydrated mini marshmallows to be the easiest to add to the bombs. Regular mini marshmallows are just a little too big and you can only fit 4-5 inside the bomb.

HELPFUL KITCHEN TOOLS

A silicone mold is a must to make hot chocolate bombs.  Get one that has a 2 to 2 1/2 inch diameter. It will be large enough to hold the filling, but small enough to fit in a mug. 

HOW TO MAKE S'MORES HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS 

New to making hot chocolate bombs? I suggest reading my first hot chocolate bombs article. It's full of tips and lots of details to make sure your bombs turn out great. 

I've made several varieties including sea salt caramel and English Toffee. I also made some with candy cane kisses. Most of my hot chocolate bombs include marshmallows.  Gifting the hot chocolate bombs? Check out this free printable gift tag

Let's get started making S'more's hot chocolate bombs.

Begin by melting the chocolate chips. I like using milk chocolate chips. They melt quickly and there is no need to temper the chocolate. 

I like to melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds. It takes 1-2 minutes depending on your microwave.  

Spoon chocolate into the each cavity of the silicone mold. Spread the chocolate around the sides of the mold with the back of the spoon. 

Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to harden. Meanwhile gather up the rest of the ingredients.  Now is a good time to bring pot of water to a boil. Place a glass plate on top, we will use this to melt the ends of the chocolate to get the two halves to stick together.

This next part is crucial to move quickly, so make sure everything is ready to go before starting.

Remove the chocolate from the mold. Place one shell, edge side down, on the hot plate. Twist a few times to melt the edge. Set it down and add 1 tablespoon of cocoa mix and 1 teaspoon of marshmallows.
Repeat the melting process with another chocolate shell. Place it on top of the filled shell with the melted edges together. Smooth the section where they meet with your finger. 

Place them back in the freezer for another 5 to 10 minutes. 

Drizzle with melted white chocolate and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs while the chocolate is still wet.

S'mores hot chocolate bombs packed with graham flavor, mini marshmallows and of course, chocolate!

Ingredients

  • 1 c. milk chocolate chips
  • 6 Tbsp. S'mores flavored hot chocolate mix
  • 6 tsp. mini marshmallows (the dehydrated kind)
  • 1/2 c. white chocolate candy melt
  • 6 tsp. graham cracker crumbs

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Make sure to stir every 30 seconds. 
  2. Add a spoonful of melted chocolate to each section of the silicone mold. Spread the chocolate around to coat the edges of the mold as evenly as possible.
  3. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and place a plate on top. Gather all of your other ingredients
  5. Working quickly, remove the chocolate from the mold. Place one chocolate shell on the hot plate with the edge facing down. Twist until the edge melts slightly.
  6. Set the chocolate down (so your warm fingers don't melt it) and fill with 1 tablespoon of the cocoa mix and 1 teaspoon of marshmallows. 
  7. Melt the edge of another shell and place it on top of the filled shell. Smooth the seam of the ball with your finger.
  8. Continue this process for all of the hot chocolate bombs.
  9. Melt the white candy melts and drizzle them over the bombs. Sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs before chocolate hardens.
  10. To serve, place the hot cocoa bomb in a mug. Pour 1 cup of very hot milk over the top. Stir and enjoy!
