Quick for Valentine! Chocolate Clusters Recipe

Who's in for Valentine's Day?

Apart from the chocolates, I am not a big fan. But I'm pretty sure that a lot of you are actually anxiously waiting for this day filled with chocolate! This is not an SBD friendly recipe (but hey Valentine's a cheating day, right?)

Chocolate Clusters

If you have not bought your chocolates yet and are too skint or want to make something good last minute, check out the following easy Chocolate Cluster recipe. I made this a long time ago for Christmas, however it's very versatile to use in all occasions depending on how you decorate them! It's so easy (less than 20 minutes to make and half an hour to leave them in refrigerator) and you definitely would want to impress that special someone that apart from being a fashionista/smartie/girl next door (if you're a girl), you're also a domestic goddess! Or - if you're a guy - you might want to show your girls your homeloving abilities!

Right - first thing first. This is an easy recipe that will never, ever, cost you your head and arms (it's not expensive at all!) Quickly get your notes and jot down everything listed below!

NOTE: You will need a large bowl and a saucepan that can fit in your bowl. That's it.

Ingredients:

• Dark chocolate bar (approx. 250 grams or one bar)
• Cornflakes cereal - a handful (from your morning breakfast!)
• Colorful sprinkles or anything to decorate
• Muffin paper cases (better but not compulsory)

How to Prepare:

• Break the chocolate bar to pieces and put them into a large heatproof bowl (a ceramic bowl will do)
• We're going to melt the chocolate now. Fill the saucepan with water, making sure that when your bowl is put onto the saucepan, the water will not leak onto the bowl (you don't want a nasty mixture of chocolate liquid)
• Turn up the heat and bring the water to boil, carefully stirring your chocolate until they completely melt
• Remove your bowl from the saucepan (or move the entire thing from your hob) and stir in a handful of cornflakes
• Stir the cornflakes until they are fully coated, add some more cornflakes if possible
• Use your spoon to scoop the chocolate cornflakes and fill each paper case. Size is to your liking. However I recommend a bigger one than shown on the picture for Valentine's day
• Sprinkle your colorful sprinkles or decoration on top
• Move to the refrigerator and let it cool (approximately 30 minutes - check on yours!)
• Quickly wrap them in some nice tubes and give them a good wrapping!
• Serve! No! I mean send them to that special somebody!

Since this recipe is quick for Valentine's, I wouldn't say much for this one. It's simple, easy and it will impress! Go on, have a try, it's nearly foolproof!
