Hot Chocolate Bombs in Baton Rouge & DIY Recipe

December 14, 2020 by Tiany Davis

Hot chocolate bombs are the newest holiday trend this season, and with good reason! Sold out at most big box stores and made viral on TikTok, hot chocolate bombs have become a bit elusive and hard to find online and at stores. Suddenly in high demand, DIY’s are popping up all over social media, and local bakery shops are quickly jumping in to fill the Hot Cocao Bomb needs!  We’ve put together a list of local makers so you can get your Hot Chocolate Bombs in Baton Rouge!

What are hot chocolate bombs? 

Hot chocolate bombs — or hot cocoa bombs — are spheres of decadent chocolate filled with cocoa mix and lots of mini marshmallows. You pour steaming hot milk over the bomb and watch them melt away, exposing the marshmallows and coca mix inside. (See the video below.)

Where to find hot chocolate bombs in Baton Rouge and beyond. 

 Local bakeries quickly started filling the need with some of them offering special flavors, and of course, some are holiday-themed.

DIY Hot Cocoa Bomb Recipe

First, you need to purchase two silicone circular or spherical molds.

Ingredients

  • Melting chocolate/chips of your choice.
  • Hot cocoa mix
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Toppings – crushed candy canes, sprinkles, chocolate drizzle, etc… 

Directions

  1. Melt your chocolate chips by microwaving them in a bowl for 30 seconds, stirring, then continuing to heat at 15-second intervals. 
  2. Spread the chocolate so that it covers the mold with a thin coating of chocolate
  3. Let the chocolate harden in the refrigerator or the freezer if you’re in a hurry. 
  4. Once hardened, fill your mold three-fourths full with your hot cocoa mix and mini marshmallows. 
  5. Cover with the top shell to seal the bombs. (you may need to use some melted chocolate to “seal” your shell.) Add toppings. Place mold in the fridge until the chocolate sets.
  6. Place your hot cocoa bomb in a mug and pour hot milk over the bomb. Stir until completely melted.

The aroma of homemade Christmas cookies baking in the oven is one of the most glorious smells during the holiday season. In our home, there is not a more highly-anticipated (and delicious) Christmas task than baking cookies. With cookies comes cookie dough and kids and adults alike can’t seem to bake cookies without trying the raw dough. A few years ago a friend introduced me to a delicious, egg-less cookie dough recipe that is completely safe to eat raw! Find the full recipe below!

Ingredients
  1. 1 1/4 cups butter, softened (2 1/2 sticks)
  2. 1 cup sugar
  3. 4 teaspoons milk
  4. 2 teaspoons pure vanilla
  5. 3 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, preferably with an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar together until fluffy. Add milk and vanilla, beat again and scrape bowl. With mixer on low speed, add flour one cup at a time and beat after each addition. Shape into logs approximately 2" in diameter. Roll the logs in parchment paper or plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  2. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silpat liner and give them a light spray with vegetable shortening. Unwrap logs and slice into 1/4" thick slices or roll out to cut out shapes. Place cookies on prepared cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until very light brown and the sides are slightly firm.
  3. Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes before transferring cookies to a wire rack. Cool completely before storing in air tight containers.
Notes
  1. This recipe is perfect to make with the kiddos; after the dough has been chilled it makes great cookie cutter cookies for decorating. These cookies will keep well in an airtight container, making them a great homemade gift.
