Chocolate Krispy Cakes - using the following ingredients and method
112g milk chocolate, 56g Rice Krispies, decorations, 12 paper cases.
Break the chocolate into a heat-proof bowl. Place the bowl in a pan of simmering water on a medium heat. The chocolate will melt. Take care not to let the water boil as this may cause the chocolate to burn. Stir the melted chocolate with a wooden spoon. When all the chocolate has melted, remove the bowl from the pan of water and add the Rice Krispies to the chocolate. Stir quickly, making sure that the Krispies are covered in chocolate. Place a dessert spoon of the mixture in each cake case. Decorate the cakes. Leave the cakes to set for 2 hours.
