The 10 Best Hot Chocolate Bombs For 2021

You’ve shoveled the snow in the driveway, decorated the tree, and successfully found a gift your mother-in-law can’t complain about. Now you deserve a bit of decadence in the form of a hot chocolate bomb. These chocolate spheres are filled with chocolate milk powder and mini marshmallows and dissolve in water or warm milk to transform into a hot chocolate.

The trend took off as fast as Santa’s sleigh last year and this Christmas, they’re back for more. So, if you’re looking for stocking stuffers or just an inventive way to enjoy hot cocoa this winter, here’s some to check out.
