Vegan Easter Nests

Vegan Eggs

1. Break the chocolate into a bowl and melt gently.
2. Stir the melted chocolate, add the peanut butter, vanilla and syrup and mix everything together.
3. Divide the mixture into 24 small piles on a sheet of parchment.
4. Leave until firm enough to roll each pile into a small ball then form it into a small egg shape.
5. Brush the edible gold or silver over the outside of the small eggs and leave to dry.

Vegan Chocolate Nests

1. Stand eight fairy cake cases in the holes of a tart tray.
2. Gently melt the plain chocolate and coconut oil in a large bowl until just runny.
3. Spoon the golden syrup into the bowl and stir to combine.
4. Add the corn flakes and stir until they are evenly covered in the chocolate.
5. Working quickly, divide the mixture between the prepared cake cases to make the nests.
6. Divide any syrup left in the bowl between the nests.
7. Place three or four of the prepared small eggs in each nest.
8. Leave to set and store in an airtight tin.
