Recipe Notes:

  • If white chocolate isn’t your preference, you can use milk chocolate or dark chocolate instead or even create an assortment.
  • Use silicone molds for your chocolate spheres instead of hard plastics as this will prove much easier when trying to pop them out without breaking them. 
  • These Lucky Charms Hot Chocolate Bombs would make cute gifts for teachers, family and friends, for kids birthday parties or your St Patrick Day celebrations. If you intend gifting them, use a cello bag or cardboard box and decorate with St Patrick’s Day themed ribbon, accessories and gift tags. 
  • Serve your hot chocolate bombs in St Patrick’s Day themed mini cupcake liners on a platter for added visual effect!
Can I make spiked hot chocolate bombs for the adults?

If you’re looking for a delicious adult version of these hot chocolate bombs then consider adding 2 ounces of bourbon whiskey to your mug once the hot milk and hot chocolate bombs have been mixed. It’s as easy as that!

Can I make hot cocoa bombs ahead of time?

Yes! You’ll be happy to know that hot chocolate bombs can be kept for 2-3 weeks if stored in an airtight container and kept in a cool, dry place or preferably the refrigerator.

This means that you can get a head start on preparing for your St Patrick’s day celebrations! Just note though that if any of your chocolate spheres have any holes in them, the mini marshmallows inside the bombs may get stale which is why it’s best to store them in an airtight container if you’re making them ahead of time. With that said, you may not mind slightly stale marshmallows since those you’ll be using from the Lucky Charms cereal are already dehydrated.
