The easiest (and least messy way) to make hot cocoa bombs with alcohol is to create a paste with the hot cocoa mix and the liqueur you are using. In this cocoa bombs recipe, you can add whatever you want to the chocolate shell. The sky's the limit!
One chocolate bomb flavors only one cup of milk, so if you have a large mug of milk you may need more than one hot cocoa bomb to make your drink taste great! Toppings: Decorate the chocolate bombs with chocolate sprinkles, drizzled chocolate, crushed peppermint candies or candy canes, chopped nuts, small chocolate candies, crushed chocolate wafers, or festive holiday sprinkles. Just use melted chocolate as glue.Create different colored chocolate bombs. U se white chocolate and a few drops of food coloring for this variety. Requires only two main ingredients. But don't worry, there are lots of options to create different combinations by adding different ingredients.
Use nut butters! A dd a teaspoon of Nutella, almond butter, cashew butter, or smooth peanut butter inside of your cocoa bombs.Melt Dark Chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate chips are melted and smooth. (This is the easy way to get the ganache made, without needing a double boiler!) Chocolate: You can use dark, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate bark, chips, baking chocolate, or chocolate bars. My one recommendation is to choose a quality or at least "middle of the road" priced chocolate. TOP TIP: T he residual heat from the warm chocolate will melt most of the other chocolate in the bowl. If needed, microwave again in 15-second intervals, stirring between each one. Step 2: Make the Chocolate Shell Here are some suggestions just in case you're looking for some ideas to try with your hot chocolate bombs with alcohol. These liqueurs are available all over the world. If you love chocolate you might also enjoy this layered candy bark, stuffed chocolate cookie cups, or chocolate peanut butter cheesecake.
For chocolate bombs with alcohol, leave out the marshmallows until it's time to make your hot chocolate! For a pumpkin pie spice version add a small amount of spice to the inside along with the hot cocoa mix. Dooley's: Most commonly adds toffee flavor but now they have different flavors including licorice, egg cream, and white chocolate versions too. The different varieties of hot chocolate drink bombs are nearly endless. I've put together our favorites for a bit of inspiration.

Basic Hot Chocolate Bomb Recipe: Replace the Bailey’s ganache with hot cocoa mix and marshmallows. Spoon one and half tablespoons of hot cocoa mix into the shell along with a heaping tablespoon of mini marshmallows. Bailey’s Irish Cream: Perfect for boozy bombs! The sweet and vanilla-like taste of Irish cream liqueur pairs so well with chocolate! If you’re vegan or dairy-free, Baileys has a dairy-free almond based version too.
Room Temperature: They will last up to two weeks at room temperature when stored out of direct sunlight, below 70 degrees. Place the sphere with the melted edges on top of the ganache-filled sphere, and allow the chocolate to set. Repeat until you have six hot cocoa bombs. Place molds in the fridge for 10 minutes. Pop the boozy chocolate bombs out of the silicone mold and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use good quality chocolate for the best flavor. It also melts easier, and will create a more beautiful shine. I used 88% dark chocolate for this recipe, but you can use any dark chocolate that is greater than 65-70% dark.
