Hot Chocolate Balls
Ingredients:
- Melted chocolate
- Peppermint candies
- Marshmallows
- Chocolate mix
- Hot milk
Start by melting your chocolate in either a microwave or a boiler. Make sure it’s nice and smooth and silky. Put the chocolate in a bowl. Grab a mold. Fill the mold with the melted chocolate. Pop them in the freezer for about 10 minutes until solid. Now for your toppings, you break the peppermint candies in pieces. Put them in a small bowl.
Take out the frozen mold from the freezer. Slowly remove the half chocolate shape from the mold. Get your chocolate mix and put it in the chocolate shell. Add in the peppermint and marshmallows.
Heat up a dish. Then roll one chocolate shell on top of it. Repeat the process with the other empty shells. This will help seal the shells together. Using the empty shells, cover the shells filled with chocolate mix with peppermint and marshmallows. Sometimes, you can also try filling the shells with coffee.
Once all the shells are sealed, you already have little chocolate balls. You drizzle some of the remaining melted chocolate onto the tops. Sprinkle crushed peppermint candy or marshmallows on top.
Then heat up milk in a mug. Drop the balls into the milk and mix. You can add some of the marshmallows to the milk as well.
There you have it. This is a quick and easy-to-make chocolate ball hack. Your kids will definitely love this!
