How to Make Circus Animal Hot Chocolate Bombs

Makes 8-10 Hot Cocoa Bombs

Ingredients:

2 Silicone Sphere Moulds
1 disposable piping bag
1 cookie sheet fitted with wax paper

1 – 30oz of Ghirardelli White Chocolate melting wafers
2 C of White Chocolate hot cocoa mix
2 C Mini Marshmallows
1 C of Confetti Sprinkles
1 bag of Animal Circus Cookies
1 C Confetti Sprinkles

Directions:

Using a heat safe bowl, pour into the bowl and place the remaining of the ghirardelli melting wafers in the microwave for 45 second intervals. Make sure to stir the chocolate after each 45 seconds until completely melted and smooth

Using a spoon, spoon about 1-2 tbsp of the chocolate into the mould

Carefully swirl the chocolate to completely coat the inside of the mould

Lightly shake the extra chocolate back into the bowl

Place the coated moulds into the fridge for 5-10 minutes

Remove from the fridge and gently peel the silicone mould back away from the hardened chocolate shell

Carefully place the mould onto a cookie sheet

Repeat steps with remaining moulds

You should now have 8 half sphere moulds

Scoop some of the melted chocolate into the piping bag and cut the tip

Building the cocoa bomb :

Scoop about 1 tbsp of the hot cocoa mix into the bottom of the sphere mould

Sprinkle in a few of the mini marshmallows

Crush a couple of the animal circus cookies and sprinkle some inside on top of the marshmallows

Sprinkle some confetti sprinkles on top

Pipe a line of the melted chocolate around the edge of the bottom shell

Carefully place the top shell onto the bottom and gently hold the top to the bottom for about 30 seconds to a minute to allow the piped chocolate to harden to the top shell

Carefully pick up the bomb and make sure that there is no opening around the centre of the shells

Place the mould back onto the cookie sheet

Drizzle white chocolate over the mould and sprinkle some confetti sprinkles on top

Place a Animal Circus Cookie in the centre

Allow the chocolate to harden before enjoying!
