Servings 3 Makes 3 Chocolate balls filled with candy

Equipment

Half sphere mold (Buy on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3CEdqZC)

Ingredients

1 11.5 oz bag milk chocolate chips
Assorted Christmas candy (wrapped or unwrapped)
3 3 peppermint candies

Instructions

Unwrap the 3 peppermint candies
Pour chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in the microwave on high for 30 seconds. Remove and stir very well. Repeat these steps until the chocolate is fully melted.
Drizzle some chocolate into each of the mold cavities, and use a spoon to coat the entire cavity
Place chocolate-coated mold on a plate, and set in the freezer for 5 minutes.
Remove the chocolate-coated mold from the freezer, and coat with a second coat of chocolate.
Place chocolate-coated mold on a plate, and set in the freezer for 5 minutes.
Heat a small ceramic plate in the microwave for 2 minutes.
Unmold the chocolate half-spheres, and set them on the chilled plate.
Place a half-sphere upside down on the hot plate for a second, then fill with candy. Take a second half-sphere, and place it upside down on the hot plate to melt the chocolate a bit. Place the two half spheres together and the melted chocolate will mold them together.
Dab a small amount of chocolate onto one side of the peppermint candy, and place it on top of the chocolate sphere.
Repeat steps 9 and 10 for the remaining chocolate spheres.
