This is a really quick and easy no bake treat for Easter. I love eating these but have never made my own so decided to give it a go this year. It's cornflakes set in melted chocolate, golden syrup and butter and topped with mini eggs. They look really cute especially in colourful cases. I've made 3 batches of these already and may make more for Easter.
I'm sending this to The Biscuit Barrel Challenge hosted by Laura from I'd Much Rather Bake Than... which has the theme of 'fun' this month. These are really fun to make and eat and the kids can join in the fun of making them.
The theme this month is 'Spring into Easter' and these definitely scream Easter.
And to Calendar Cakes hosted by Rachel from Dolly Bakes. The theme this month is Easter Bakes.
It's also perfect for Dead Easy Desserts created by Sarah from Maison Cupcake and hosted by Michelle from Utterly Scrummy Food For Families. These no bake treats are ready in under 30 minutes excluding chilling time.

DeleteSo cute! I can't remember the last time I ate easter nests! Can't say the same for mini eggs though as they have almost become part of my daily diet over the past couple of weeks! (oops?)
ReplyDeleteHa ha its definitely mini egg season :)
DeleteI'm very much a fan of the cornflake to chocolate ratio used here =) they're so addictive aren't they?! I find it difficult not to eat some of the mixture before it has set every time I make these. Thanks for sharing them with the Biscuit Barrel!
