Jack Skellington Hot Cocoa Bombs

Frightfully fun hot chocolate bombs that can be used from Halloween to Christmas.

Ingredients

  • 1 – 30 Ounces of Ghirardelli White Chocolate melting wafers
  • 2 C of pumpkin spice hot cocoa mix
  • 1 C mini marshmallows
  • 1 small skillet over very low heat
  • 1 disposable piping bag
  • 1 black cookie icing
  • 1 cookie sheet fitted with wax paper

Instructions

  • Use a paper towel or clean kitchen towel and wipe the inside of the silicone molds. This will allow your chocolate mold to have a shiny coat on it.
  • 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 mold. Carefully swirl the chocolate to thoroughly coat the inside of the mold. Lightly shake the extra chocolate back into the bowl.
  • Place the coated molds into the fridge for 5-10 minutes.
  • Remove from the fridge and gently peel the silicone mold back away from the hardened chocolate shell. Carefully place the mold onto the cookie sheet. Repeat steps with remaining molds. You should now have 8 half sphere molds
  • Carefully take the open side of the sphere and place it onto the pan to melt off the uneven edges to create a smooth edging. Place the shell back onto the cookie sheet and allow the edge to harden.

Building the cocoa bomb :

  • Scoop about 1 tbsp of the pumpkin spice hot cocoa mix into the bottom of the sphere mold. Place a few mini marshmallows into the shell
  • Place the top of the shell back onto the warm pan to melt the edges for a few seconds.
  • Quickly place the melted edges onto the filled shell and gently press down.
  • Squeeze the cookie icing into the piping bag and cut the tip off. Carefully pipe the details of Jack Skellington's face.
  • Allow the icing to harden before enjoying in a 8oz glass of steaming milk

Notes

This part is 100% optional and a personal choice:
Cut the silicone molds so that each sphere mold is by itself as shown in the IP image. I did this because i felt it was easier to control the mold when working with the melted chocolate

Firebird

Firebird is a solid dark romantasy read. You have dragon-shifter political leaders of Rome. A witch who I don’t think we have seen the full extent of her power yet. There were so many little side stories told that I believe our FMC will ...
Sunrise on the Reaping
it was amazing
Oh Haymich, my heart is shattered for you. This was the perfect bridge between The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and Catching Fire. Linking the wickedness of The Hunger Games with the victors who came together to end them. If Suzanne C...

This was a sweet romance read. I really enjoyed the audiobook narrators (Joshua Manning and Stina Nielsen). I don’t usually read books that fall into the religious category, but I’m a sucker for Scots and Irishman so that is why I wanted...

I am thoroughly enjoying the Hell Bent series. My Demon Hunter was even better than My Funny Demon Valentine. I’m a sucker for demonology stories, and these are filled with all kinds of interesting characters. This one features a plus-si...
