    How cute are these dog cake pops from Bubba Rose? We found these at our local dog food store and fell in love. We had to pick up some for some of our neighbors dogs that like to visit.

    This is also the season that our elf gets a little more mischievious. I feel the same way Fizzy. I can't believe there was no chocolate. who would dare eat it all before you had a chance to eat it?

    Now let's get making some simple and easy hot cocoa bombs!

    Hot Cocoa Bombs

    Ingredients

    • Chocolate Chips
    • Hot cocoa mix (you can use any flavor you want)
    • Silicone molds
    • Sprinkles and other decorations
    • Piping bags
    • Truffle boxes

    Directions

    1. Melt chocolate chips. We recommend melting about ¼ of a chocolate chip bag per 12 slots of chocolate mold. For best results, make sure the chocolate is melted to about 84-90 degrees.
    2. Evenly scoop and fill each mold with chocolate. Freeze for several minutes in the freezer once filled.
    3. Check molds and if needed add an extra layer of chocolate and refreeze.
    4. Remove chocolate from molds. Scoop one tablespoon of hot cocoa mix into each chocolate mold. Pipe melted chocolate along the seam to seal. Allow chocolate seal to harden and then decorate as desired.
    5. Place hot cocoa bomb into the truffle box once chocolate has hardened.

    About Me

    minimal ingredient recipes with five ingredients or less and ready in under thirty minutes! many recipes are gluten free, dairy free and FODMAP friendly too!

    I've been making over recipes since I was ten. Back then I wasn't so great at it and created everything from rubber cakes for my Dad's birthday to rock muffins that put a hole in the wall.

    Diagnosed with colitis ten years ago and with three young children I had to learn to cook. But life was busy and there wasn't a lot of time to cook or figure out what I could eat!

    Burnt Apple became my personal coffee shop--a place to share, talk and vent! I share minimal ingredient recipes with five ingredients or less and ready in under thirty minutes!
