Scale

Pot and bowl

Thermometer

Tablespoon (for melting the chocolate)

Teaspoon

Food safe paint brush

Edible pearls

Edible sprinkles

Step 1: Melt the Chocolate.

First you melt the chocolate.If you want shiny bombs, then make sure that your temperature doesn't get higher than 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2: Filing in the Molds.

After your chocolate is melted, take a tsp. and put in about 1 tsp. per circle. Then take the paint brush and nicely spread the chocolate till you don't see any holes or gaps. After done spreading the chocolate, refrigerate till the chocolate is dry.

Step 3: Starting

Take the bombs out of the refrigerator, and take a bit of chocolate to put in ziploc bags for melting. Put hot water in a cup, and put the ziploc bag in there, and wait till the chocolate is melted all the way. Once your done, dry the ziploc bag and cut a tiny piece off as shown in the picture.

Step 4: Filling in the Bomb.

Take out a shell (a circle from the mold), and put about 1 tsp. of Hot Chocolate powder in for one shell (just so that it fills one shell). Next, put in about 6 mini marshmallows. (I used white ones, but you can also use colorful ones to make it look more cheerful)!

Step 5: Closing Off the Bomb.

If you want to cover the chocolate that you used to cover up the holes, you can do what I did! Putting on sprinkles!! That's what makes it look more cheery.

Once your done, warm up some milk and put the bomb in, and watch how it turns, then POPS open!!

It is also a perfect Christmas gift for someone you love.

Enjoy!
