Ingredients
1 cup (142 grams) sifted organic powdered sugar
⅓ cup (28 grams) organic Dutch cocoa powder, sifted
4 oz. organic milk chocolate, chopped
2 oz. organic white chocolate, chopped
Directions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), mix the butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and 1 tablespoon of milk on low until combined.
Using your hands, form the chocolate mixture into 12 balls, each about ½-inch to ¾-inch diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the balls harden, at least 15 minutes.
Using a double boiler and stirring frequently, gently melt the milk chocolate until smooth. Remove from heat.
Remove the chocolate balls from the freezer. Lifting with a fork (do not pierce) so the excess chocolate can drip off, dip the balls into the melted chocolate and place them back on the baking sheet.
Using a double boiler and stirring frequently, melt the white chocolate until smooth (note that white chocolate melts faster than dark, so don’t leave it unattended). Using a spoon, drizzle the white chocolate over the tops of the milk chocolate covered balls, or make fun designs! Store in the fridge for up to 7 days.
To serve: Add one hot chocolate bomb to a mug. Heat 1 cup of milk until it reaches 160 F on an instant-read thermometer (you don’t want your milk to boil). Pour hot milk over bomb and stir until combined. Add toppings of choice and enjoy!
