Method

  • step 1

    Children: Weigh out the ingredients. Older children can do this by themselves with supervision and little ones can help to pour or spoon ingredients into the weighing scales. Put 50g butter, 100g milk or dark chocolate, broken into chunks and 3 tbsp golden syrup in a saucepan or microwavable bowl. Put 100g cornflakes in another large bowl.

  • step 2

    Grown ups: Melt the weighed butter, chocolate and golden syrup in the saucepan over a low heat or briefly in the microwave. Allow to cool a little before pouring over the cornflakes.

  • step 3

    Children: Stir the ingredients together gently using a wooden spoon. Spoon the mixture into 12 cupcake cases arranged on a muffin tray (or baking sheet, if you don’t have one). Grown ups will need to do this for younger children or simply arrange on a tray and let the mess happen. Put in the fridge to set.

RECIPE TIPS
TIP FOR COOKING WITH KIDS

Before you start tie back any long hair, put on your aprons and wash your hands. Make sure your child is stable where they are cooking and comfortable with the angle they are cooking at. As you cook explain what the different ingredients are where they come from.

Recipe needs more chocolate to help the cornflakes to bind together.

Use 2 Mars Bars, no golden syrup and a splash of milk with the 50grams of butter and melt that then pour over your 100grams of corn flakes or rice crispness and mix then leave in fridge for an hour or two enjoy

Lovely recipe tastes amazing

Recipe makes them too soft, they don’t set at all. I suspect there’s too much golden syrup. Try a different recipe if you want ones that hold together

tip

Give chocolate / butter / syrup a good stir before mixing with flakes . Stops splitting.
