Chocolate nests

Dark chocolate nests
It's a tradition in my family for my Mum to make chocolate nests every year and hide them in the garden for us to find. I decided to make some of my own this year. Now that my siblings and I are adults I decided to make "grown-up" Easter nests with dark chocolate instead of the usual milk. Here's the recipe I used:

Chocolate Easter nests (makes 24 muffin size nests)
200g 85% cocoa dark chocolate (I used Green & Blacks)
125g cornflakes
250g mini eggs

  1. Line muffin tray with paper cases
  2. Break up chocolate into small pieces and place in microwave bowl.
  3. Melt chocolate in microwave on full power for about 1-2 minutes (the exact amount of time needed will depend on the type of chocolate being used so remove and stir the chocolate every so often to ensure it heats evenly).
  4. Once the chocolate is melted, remove from microwave and gradually stir in cornflakes so they are completely covered in chocolate.
  5. Spoon mixture into paper cases and make a hole in the center.
  6. Fill hole with mini eggs and leave to set.

Eat and enjoy. Yummy!
