Easter nests; a firm family-favourite and as far as I am concerned the only good use of shredded wheat!
This recipe made nine nests.
Ingredients
100 g bar 70% Dark chocolate
1 tablespoon Golden syrup
25 g Butter
150 g Shredded wheat
(at least) 16 ‘mini-eggs’ or similar – I used Traidcraft little speckled eggs which are delicious and ethically sourced.
Method
Line a muffin tin with paper cases – pretty ones if you have them.
Slowly melt the chocolate, golden syrup and butter in a bowl over boiling water. The bowl shouldn’t touch the water.
When the above is melted and combined, crumble the shredded wheat into the bowl a bit at a time and stir in until well coated with the chocolate mixture.
Spoon into the paper-cases, making a little ‘well’ in the middle for the eggs.
Place in a cool place; try not to scoff them all immediately so that the chocolate has time to set!
I tried this out, only with Rice Krispies. I’ve done a post on them that I’d appreciate if you checked it out https://sophiesamantha.wordpress.com/2016/03/27/easter-treats/
