WEIGHT CONVERTER
Method
- To make the mould; take a sheet of tin foil, and top with a sheet of baking parchment. Set a Cadbury's dairy milk selection stocking box on top and trace around the edge with pencil. Fold over and twist the corners slightly to hold in place. Remove the box and your mould should stay in place.
- Break the milk, dark and white chocolate into separate bowls, melt each in the microwave separately. Do this in short bursts of ten seconds until the right consistency.
- Set the folded baking parchment and foil mould on a baking tray. Scrape in the milk chocolate in a few big blobs, top with the dark then the white chocolate. Gently spread to the edges with a spatula, making a few ‘marble’ swirls as you go.
- Set the chocolate bars on top leave to set for at least 2 hours before breaking apart and sharing.
