These are the cutest little party favours or a fun Easter Dessert idea! Easy for little hands to help make ?
WHAT YOU NEED:
- Ingredients for your favourite chocolate muffin recipe
- 12 brown muffin cases
- Chocolate frosting
- Chocolate sandwich biscuits (with icing removed), crushed into fine crumbs
- 12 mini terracotta plant pots
- 130g orange fondant icing
- 2 tbsp icing sugar
- Toothpick
- Parsley or mint for the carrot tops
METHOD:
- Bake 12 of your favourite chocolate muffins using brown muffin cases, then frost with chocolate frosting.
- Crush the chocolate sandwich biscuits, then dip the muffins in the crumbs to resemble soil. Pop each muffin into one of the terracotta pots.
- Dust your work surface with icing sugar, then knead the orange fondant and shape into “carrot tops”. (If you can’t find orange fondant, use white fondant, then and add a few drops of orange food colouring.) Place one carrot top into each muffin, pushing down into the frosting so it stays put.
- Use a toothpick to poke a small hole into each carrot top. Poke a sprig of parsley or mint into the hole. Serve to your little (kid) bunnies!
