Oreo Balls Recipe

My first recipe post! These are really easy to make (especially if you have no gas and can't use an oven...like me.) But onto the recipe for these tasty tasty balls. ;D This is gonna be an extremely picture heavy post...

What I spend my wages on.
Ingredients
You will need:
- 2 packs of Oreos.
- A load of chocolate of your choosing, I used more than half of that massive bar.
- Either cream cheese (Philadelphia will do) or a little tub of icing. (we went all out and used Betty Crocker chocolate fudge)
- Toothpicks/Cocktail sticks.
- Icing to decorate, if you want.

nomnom.

Smash it up as fine as possible. 

This stuff smells amazing.

Add it to your mess!

Keep mixing until it reaches a nice fudgey consistency. 

Make your bawlls. (Laura sacrificed her clean hands for this.)

Yummy balls. 

Melt your chocolate! (I did mine in the microwave, stopping every minute or so to make sure it's not burnt.)

Dip your bawlls in the chocolate. 

Took a lot longer than expected. 

Pop them in the fridge to set.

Take this opportunity to clean your hands :P

When they're set, take them out and cover them in silly patterns.

I was so proud :I

I TRIED to make a rosebud. Not sure why it's blue though.

Laura went crazy on the decorating. 

This beast.

So yeah! That's how you make oreo balls. Ours are still setting in the fridge and I'm slightly reluctant to eat them, it's like eating my love-children D:

Cadbury Hot Choc Chunks

Cadbury Hot Choc Chunks - £1.50 - £3.50 





(Just a short post)

My chocolate cravings were getting the best of me and while rummaging through the cupboards I found these bad boys. Dairy Milk Hot Choc Chunks. Awww, yeahhh. Basically these are chunks of Dairy Milk chocolate filled with a chocolate fondant center. 


They're all individually wrapped and look quite cute when you open the box and they come tumbling out. 


Delicious gooey innards. I just wish my phone camera could actually pick up on that much awesomeness. I had a sneaky nibble on it and it just tasted like rich gooey chocolate. 



Drop your chunk into your hot milk and do some serious stirring, really, it takes a lot of stirring. And voila! 


Pretty damn good hot chocolate! The fact that you don't get that awful powdery lump at the bottom is great. I think my mug of milk was too big though, because it wasn't as chocolatey as when I had it before. Unfortunately there was no whipped cream or marshmallows in the house or it could have looked a lot prettier. Either way, I'm a fan of these little chunks. :}
