Melt the Chocolate: Gently melt the dark chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
1/2 cup high-quality dark chocolate chips
Coat the Molds: Spoon the melted chocolate into each cavity of your heart-shaped silicone mold. Use the back of a spoon to evenly coat the sides, ensuring no thin spots.

Chill: Place the molds in the freezer for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
Prepare the Filling: In a small bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and salt.
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt
Assemble: Carefully remove the chocolate shells from the molds. Fill half of the shells with the cocoa mixture, mini marshmallows (if using), and Valentine's sprinkles.

Seal the Bombs: Gently warm the edges of the empty chocolate shells and place them on top of the filled halves, creating a seal. Smooth any seams with a warm fingertip.
Decorate: Drizzle with melted chocolate and sprinkle with Valentine's decorations. Let these set.
