Prep time:

Cooking time: 20 minutes

Total time:

Serves: 4

400g 400g chocolate (finely chopped)

50g edible decorations

  1. As per the seeding method, melt ⅔ of the chocolate in stages in the microwave until approximately 50-55˚C. Add the remaining ⅓ of chocolate and mix well until incorporated and smooth. 
  2. Keep stirring until the chocolate reaches 27-28˚C. For white chocolate, you do not need to heat any more. For milk chocolate, give the chocolate an additional heat briefly in the microwave until 30˚C. For dark chocolate heat until 31˚C.
  3. You are now ready to place your chocolate into a mould or simply greaseproof a small tray and tip your chocolate into the desired shape and thickness.
  4. Decorate however you wish: nuts, seeds, dried fruits, sweets, cookies etc. I simply used chocolate mini eggs and sweetie fried eggs for a fun family Easter treat!
