How to Make Baked Apples With Mexican Chocolate

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Halve 4 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji) lengthwise.
  3. Using a melon baller or grapefruit spoon, scoop out the seeds and cores from each apple half, creating a small crater in the center.
  4. Fill each crater with 1/4 of a 10-ounce bag of mini marshmallows and 1/4 of a 4-ounce Mexican chocolate disk, coarsely chopped.
  5. Cut 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) of unsalted butter into small pieces and divide evenly among the apples, placing the butter pieces over the chocolate and marshmallows.
  6. In a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches), pour 1/2 cup of water and melt the remaining 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) of unsalted butter.
  7. Arrange the filled apple halves in the baking dish.
  8. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until a paring knife inserted into the apples meets no resistance.
  9. Switch oven to broil.
  10. Top each apple half with 2 mini marshmallows.
  11. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and slightly caramelized. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  12. Drizzle the baked apples with the pan juices before serving.
