We are hosting our 5 year old half Spanish godson’s birthday party here this afternoon. He has invited all his little Spanish mates – twelve of them – Yikes!
We thought we would provide half English and half Spanish fare – just to show how integrated we are!
In the past I have found it tricky to find the perfect Crispy recipe – they are either rock hard or too sticky – anyway, I found some time ago a Nigel Slater one – they give you the perfect balance of both and Mick has been testing them out since yesterday afternoon so I have had to make another batch!
For a rainy afternoon indoors with the kids, you will need:-
15 Paper Fairy Cake Cases
50g butter
4 Tablespoons of golden syrup (or very slightly less)
100g good quality dark chocolate
75g Cornflakes or Rice Crispies
Very gently melt the butter, syrup and cornflakes in a smallish heavy pan. Stir in the cornflakes. Place spoonfuls of the mixture in the paper cases and refrigerate for a couple of hours if you can wait that long! Absolutely sensational.
