Chocolate Nests

For 12 nests you will need:

Ingredients:

• a non-stick muffin tray
  
• 1 cup milk chocolate chips or chocolate broken into chunks
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chocolate broken into chunks
• 1/4 cup butter
• 2 tablespoons runny honey
• 4 cups corn flakes

Method:

• Add the butter and honey to a large pan. Gently melt over low heat.
• Turn off the heat and add the chocolate. Keep stirring until it has melted.
• Gently stir in the corn flakes until they are coated in the chocolate mixture.
• To make the nests, spoon the mixture into the holes in the muffin tray.
• Push three little chocolate eggs or jelly beans gently into the middle of each nest.
• Chill the nests for one hour, then use a spoon to lift the nests out of the tray.

Store nests in an airtight container and eat within 4 days.
