Edible Chocolate Balloon Bowls
Edible Chocolate Balloon Bowls, a simple and delicious dessert or snack recipe idea for creating bowls made from chocolate using balloons.
Servings: 6
Equipment
Bowl
Ingredients
- 2 cups Chocolate Melting Wafers
Optional ingredients, Chopped candy such as peanut butter cups, sprinkles, chopped nuts, coconut flakes, or salt such as sea salt.
Instructions
- To prepare, make sure that your balloons are clean and in good condition before blowing them up to your desired bowl size. You can spray the outside of the balloons with nonstick for easier removal after coating.
- If you are going to be adding chopped candy, nuts or something else to the outside of the bowls, place them into a shallow bowl. Also, line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the chocolate according to the directions on the packaging (as overheating can ruin the texture of the chocolate for dipping). Allow the chocolate to cool for a few minutes to room temperature. While your chocolate is cooling you can carefully stir in other ingredients, such as chopped nuts, to give the bowls a cool looking texture.
- Use a tablespoon to place dollops of melted chocolate on to the baking sheet where the coated balloons will go, leaving space between each dollop to create a flat bottom on the bowls.
- Carefully dip the balloons into the melted chocolate, using a spoon if necessary to help coat the balloon evenly. Coat the balloons only as far up as you want the bowls to be tall. Before the chocolate cools, sprinkle or dip the ingredients for the outside decoration oven the chocolate.
- Place the coated balloons onto parchment paper on top of the dollops you just made. Transfer the baking sheet to your refrigerator to set (this can take up to an hour).
- When your chocolate is fully set you can take the baking sheet out of the refrigerator.
- Pop the balloons very very slowly by cutting (use a toothpick) a tiny hole near the knot of the balloon. Then peel the deflated balloon away from the chocolate shells.
