Messy but great. This quick sweet-bite just won’t be enough. Luckily, this recipe makes ten dark gooey chocolate nests, that will have you licking the bowl.
Makes: 10 large fairy cakes
Level of difficulty: Super-easy
Time: 15 mins
Ingredients:
90g 85% dark chocolate
100g cornflakes
40g melted butter
3 tsp dark treacle
4 tbsp golden syrup
Recipe:
- Melt the chocolate. This is best done by first breaking the chocolate into smaller sections and placing them into a bowl. Then sit the bowl in a saucepan of boiling hot water – but make sure the water doesn’t go into the bowl. This will also keep the chocolate melted till you’re ready to pour.
- Pour just 60g of cornflakes into a large bowl, and put aside for now.
- Next, cut the butter into small sections and melt in the microwave for 30 seconds.
- Then pour the melted chocolate, butter, treacle and syrup into the bowl of cornflakes and stir well.
- Once it’s fully stirred; add a little bit of the cornflakes at a time and mix until fully covered. Keep repeating till you’ve used all the cornflakes.
- Place the mix into fairy cakes and leave to rest – although they will never fully set, being purposefully gooey. Then pick the biggest and eat.
