These Easter-inspired birds' nests are easy enough for you and the kids to make together - they also make brilliant Easter gifts
Ingredients
50 g unsalted English butter, cubed
1 tbsp cocoa powder
50 g milk chocolate buttons
2 tbsp golden syrup
4 wholewheat breakfast bars
27 sugar coated chocolate mini eggs
Method
Put the butter in a heatproof bowl with the cocoa powder, chocolate buttons and golden syrup. Sit over a pan of simmering water and stir until melted. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
Crumble in the wholewheat bars and stir gently. Divide the chocolate mixture between 9 shallow paper cake cases placed in a 12-hole cake tin. Make a slight dip in the middle of each nest and press in 3 chocolate eggs in each. Leave to set in the fridge for 1 hour.
Cook's tip:
you could use jelly beans as an alternative to mini eggs.
