Chop your chocolate into 1/2" pieces and microwave in 15-second intervals. Between each interval, fold the chocolate gently. Make sure not to over-melt your chocolate. Stop when it's still smooth and a little chunky; the chunks will stir out as you fold it.

2. Fill your molds

Spoon a small amount of melted chocolate into each mold, about 1 tablespoon. Use your pastry brush to fully coat each well. Keep your chocolate very thin and even. Allow it to set for around 15 minutes.

3. Apply a second layer

Once your first layer of chocolate has set, repeat step two over your first layer. After that, jiggle your silicone mold around so the chocolate is smooth and evenly distributed. Allow your second layer to set for at least an hour before trying to manipulate it more.

4. Fill your bombs

Remove your chocolate halves from your mold, making sure not to crack any of them. Set half of the chocolate halves aside. Fill your remaining chocolates with two scoops of hot chocolate mix and two scoops of mini marshmallows.

5. Melt them

6. Put them together

Press the melted half to the flat edge of your filled chocolate. Smooth out the edges with your fingers.
