How do I make it?
- Finely chop chocolate and place into a glass bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Heat again for 15 seconds, then stir again. Repeat these steps until the chocolate is just melted.
- Paint a thin layer of melted chocolate onto the inside of the moulds and refrigerate for 5 minutes.
- Paint another layer of chocolate over the first layer, then refrigerate for 5 minutes.
- Wearing gloves so that your fingers don’t leave marks on the chocolate, remove the chocolate from the moulds and fill with 1 tablespoon of drinking chocolate and some marshmallows.
- Use the brush to add a layer of melted chocolate to the rim of the sphere and then attach a second sphere on top, pressing gently to seal.
- Keep refrigerated.
