Equipment

Semi Sphere Silicone Mold

Ingredients

½ cup pink candy melts
½ cup blue candy melts
½ cup purple candy melts
6 tablespoon Nesquik strawberry milk powder
6 teaspoon sprinkles mix
½ cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

In three separate, microwave safe bowls, melt the candy melts in 30 second increments, stirring in between. This will take 60-90 seconds.
Once they are melted, spoon about ½ Tbs of each color into each half sphere mold. Using the back of a spoon or a pastry brush, lightly swirl the colors together and spread around the entire mold. Don’t swirl too much, just 3-4 swirls or the colors will start blending and there will not be a noticeable difference between each color.
Let set in the refrigerator for 10 minutes or until hardened. As a precaution, reinforce the top edges of each half sphere with a little bit of the remaining candy melt. This will prevent it from cracking when removed from the mold. Let set for a minute until they are hardened again. Gently remove each half sphere from the molds.
Spoon 1 tablespoon of the strawberry milk powder into 6 of the half spheres. Top with 1 teaspoon of sprinkles and several mini marshmallows.
Place a small, microwave safe plate into the microwave to heat for about 45 seconds. Place an empty half sphere onto the plate for a few seconds until the edges start to melt. Place the empty half onto the corresponding filled half ensuring the edges meet evenly all the way around. Run a clean finger around the edge to clean up any excess candy melt. Repeat with remaining 5 spheres until all of the cocoa bombs are assembled.
To make hot cocoa simply place a cocoa bomb in the bottom of a mug and top with 6 oz of hot milk or water. Once the shell has melted, stir well to emulsify. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Cocoa bombs may be stored in a baggie or an airtight container on the counter for up to 2 weeks.
