By ames107

For the Mexican Chocolate we use the Abuelita chocolate drink disks you can find at the grocery store.

Ingredients

• 2 medium apples
• 5 large marshmallows, 1 quartered, 4 sliced in half
• 1 oz Mexican chocolate, coarsely chopped
• 2 oz (4 tbsp)unsalted butter

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Halve each apple lengthwise. Using a melon baller or spoon, scoop out the seeds, forming a small crater in the center of each half.
2. Fill each crater with 1 marshmallow quarter and 1/4 of the chocolate. Cut 2 tbsp butter into small pieces, and divide among the apples, placing over the chocolate.
3. Place water and the remaining 2 tbsp butter in a baking dish. Place filled apples in dish. Bake until a paring knife meets no resistance when inserted into the apples, about 20 to 30 min.
4. Set oven to broil. Top each apple half with 2 marshmallow halves. Broil until golden brown. Drizzle with juices.
