Too cold for outdoor play? Why not stay at home and make these yummy chocolate Easter nests instead?
Here’s our favourite tried and tested (tasted!) recipe.
Ingredients:
200g milk chocolate, broken into small pieces
85g shredded wheat, crushed
2 x bags of mini chocolate eggs
You’ll also need 12 cupcake cases.
How to make:
Melt the chocolate in a bowl in a pan of slightly simmering hot water.
Pour the melted chocolate over the broken-up pieces of shredded wheat.
Spoon the chocolate wheat into the cupcake cases. Make a slight indent with a spoon to make a nest shape.
Place approx. three chocolate eggs in each chocolate nest.
Cool for an hour or so in the refrigerator.
Top Tip: Cornflakes work just as well as shredded wheat. You can also add a few tablespoons of golden syrup to the melted chocolate to make gooier.
