What are Hot Chocolate Bombs?

Hot chocolate bombs are chocolate spheres filled inside with hot cocoa powder and marshmallows. They are a fun gift idea for the holidays or during the chilly fall and winter months and are perfect for kids (and adults)!

To make the hot chocolate bombs, simply heat 8 to 10 ounces of your favorite milk and drop in a bomb. You can also pour hot milk over the bomb in a mug. The chocolate will melt, releasing the hot cocoa mix and marshmallows. Just stir and enjoy!
