Hey!! Wonder where I had got to? Well, I am back and I have a great and SO easy recipe for you to try!
Ingredients 3oz cream cheese 2 1/2 cups (10 oz) icing sugar 4-6 drops of food colouring 4-6 drops of flavouring |
Method
- Mix the cream cheese and the icing sugar together.
- Start with four drops of food flavouring and then carefully add flavouring and colour as desired.
- Mix until the mixture is an even colour. You may wish to add more icing sugar if your mixture seems a bit thin.
- Melt the milk chocolate and half fill your moulds. (depending on your moulds you may want to experiment with the following method but this worked perfectly for me.
- Using a icing piping bag put a blob of the mixture into the centre of the chocolate (see picture below).
- Spoon a small amount of chocolate onto the top to seal and then place in the fridge.
- Turn out when set.
- Keep in the fridge until needed.
I used low fat cream cheese, just to try and convince myself that these are healthier! Put full fat os fine also. I had to go to eBay for the flavouring, I was struggling to find sweet flavourings but found an American company LorAnn Oils which do a great range and are very reasonably priced.
Hey! I'd love to know if people are using my recipes!! If you are leave a wee comment on the recipes post! Also, why not head back and let me know how you got on!!?

Oh wow these look great. I like making chocolates and candies. For many years I made them for my entire family for Christmas. That was 1500 or so pieces... I just don't have the energy or money to do it anymore.
