Chocolate Covered Cornflakes

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and if you're broke but still want to give something sweet and lovely to your special someone, here's a wonderful gift that is easy to make, sweet looking, and cheap :)  I'm going to give you the recipe to turn the top part of this photo, into something that looks like the bottom part of this photo!

  

Cooking Instruction:

1. Melt like15cm x 5cm + 3cm of chocolate in a bowl. (Cut the chocolate into smaller cubes, then bring a saucepan with water to a boil, place a bowl on top of the saucepan, and in the saucepan put in the chocolate to melt. Stir occasionally until liquid)

2. Throw in half a box of cornflakes, and coat it completely with chocolate.

3. I add almond whole, and cranberries after that, and coat it completely as well. Feel free to add in anything you fancy: raisin, apricots, pinenuts, pistachio etc.

4. On a flat surface, place out all your paper cups, and scope spoonful of fillings to fill the cups.

5. Add the finishing touch with a dash of sugar balls! You can use any other sweet decoration as well! Go wild!

6. Takes around 45mins to cool, and you can package it after that. Stores well for weeks in a fridge!

 

Tips:After mixing the ingredient, leave the chocolate in the bowl on top of the saucepan while you fill up the paper cups. This help keeps the chocolate warm and liquid. If not, the chocolate is going to harden and make life difficult for you.

 

So once again, from left the ingredient,  the end product in the middle showing it nicely packed into a box, and lastly, the valentine gift on the right, all wrapped up with a pink ribbon! Doesn't it look just sweet?

Here's wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day! xoxo
