Recipes For Chocolate Liquer
This recipe was devised by my mother for Easter, but it makes a delicious chocolatey treat for anytime of the year. Rather than forking out on expensive Easter Eggs, try making a nest of your own...
You will need:
- About 220 grams of cooking chocolate. You can use plain or milk chocolate, whichever you prefer. For the ultimate chocolate blend, try mixing together some of each.
- 1 pack of Rice Krispies (a cheap own-brand shop equivalent works just as well as the expensive kind).
- 1 pack of small chocolate eggs (Cadbury's Mini Eggs are the ideal here).
- 1 handful of sultanas/raisins (optional, but stops the mixture becoming too dry once set).
- Roughly 10-15 cake cases.
How to Melt the Chocolate
Break up the chocolate into small pieces, place it into a glass bowl and melt. This can either be done in a microwave by heating on full power for 30 seconds (750W), after which you should remove the bowl and stir the chocolate well. Repeat again if necessary until all the chocolate is melted.
Alternatively you can use the hob. Place the bowl over a saucepan of hot (but not boiling) water, ensuring that the water does not enter the mixture. Stir as the chocolate melts, until is is flowing and ready for use. Be sure not to over-cook, as this will give a rather unpleasant taste.
