HOW TO MAKE
Caramel Coffee Bomb
STEP 01
Place 14 oz of chocolate in a glass bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, leaving the remaining 2 oz of chocolate to drizzle later.
STEP 02
Stir chocolate from outside edges of bowl to the center.
STEP 03
Microwave chocolate for 15 more seconds and stir again.
STEP 04
Take temperature and be sure not to exceed 90°F.
STEP 05
Repeat steps 2–4 until chocolate pieces are mostly melted.
STEP 06
Keep stirring, using the residual heat of the bowl to finish.
STEP 07
Using a pastry brush, spread a layer of chocolate inside each mold.
STEP 08
Chill for a few minutes, then add a second layer of chocolate to mold, being sure to build up the rim.
STEP 09
Chill for 10 minutes.
STEP 10
Carefully push chocolate half-spheres out of the molds.
STEP 11
Fill 8 of the half-spheres with 1 oz of caramel each. For different flavors, try adding chocolate chips, caramel candy pieces, or butterscotch chips on the interior of the bombs. For a creamier coffee bomb, try adding a splash of your favorite liquid creamer; just be sure to enjoy immediately.
STEP 12
Warm a skillet on lowest heat.
STEP 13
One at a time, hold the rim of an empty half sphere to the warmed pan until lightly melted.
STEP 14
Immediately press the tops of one of the caramel-filled half spheres and let set.
STEP 15
Repeat until all bombs are whole.
STEP 16
Melt remaining 2 oz of chocolate and drizzle over bombs.
STEP 17
Immediately sprinkle crushed caramel candy onto the top of each bomb. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 1 week.
