Thank Crunchie Bits Friday

April 22, 2011

Now that Easter is nearly upon us, I thought I should share a nice chocolatey recipe with you all. I often get a craving for crunchies on Fridays, (I guess advertising really does work).

I knew it was possible to make honeycomb at home so I decided to try and re-create these crunchie nuggget bits for myself. I used Nigella Lawson’s recipe for honeycomb, she calls it hokey pokey! I dipped my honeycomb pieces in dairy milk to give it that Cadbury crunchie taste.
