Makes six
YOU WILL NEED
- 350 g Nomad Buttons 72% dark
- 6 tbsp Nomad Australian Native Hot Chocolate
- 6 large or 18 small vegan marshmallows
METHOD:
- Break the chocolate buttons
- Place two-thirds of it in a heat-proof bowl and melt over a bain-marie.
- Remove the bowl from the bain-marie and add the remaining chocolate one-third at a time. Mix gently. The last portion must have melted before you add the next one.
- Return the bowl to the bain-marie so that it does not cool down excessively.
- You will need hemispherical moulds for the cocoa bombs. Paint melted chocolate onto the moulds and refrigerate until set. Then add a second layer and repeat.
- Once the chocolate hemispheres have set, carefully remove them from the moulds.
- Pour the water out of the bain-marie and turn it upside-down. You can melt the rim of the chocolate hemispheres on the warm base of the bain-marie in order to assemble them as full spheres.
- Take one hemisphere and gently rub it twice over the warm base of the bain-marie.
- Fill it with a tablespoon of cocoa drink powder and marshmallows. If you are using large marshmallows, first cut them into three or four smaller pieces.
- Take another hemisphere and rub it over the base of the bain-marie as well until its rim has melted slightly. Next, carefully bring the two halves together.
- Allow the cocoa bombs to set. Use hundreds and thousands to decorate them or drizzle them with melted chocolate.
- When serving, heat up 300 ml of your favourite plant-based beverage and pour it over the cocoa bomb in a mug. The shell will break down, releasing the cocoa and marshmallows it contains.
- Enjoy
