Here is a Christmas decoration that tastes delicious too. Get into the festive spirit with these simple and tasty chocolate baubles.

Preparation Time 20 minutes
Cooking Time 10 minutes
Makes 16

Ingredients

1/2 x 350g pkt frozen chocolate butter cake (Sara Lee brand), thawed, icing removed, cut into cubes
100g butter
250ml (1 cup) sweetened condensed milk
100g (1/2 cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
16 white marshmallows
65g (3/4 cup) desiccated coconut
80g chocolate sprinkles

Method

Place the chocolate cake in the bowl of a food processor and process until fine crumbs form.

Combine the butter, condensed milk and brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, for 10 minutes or until the butter melts and the mixture thickens and comes away from the side of the pan. Remove from heat. Set aside for 30 minutes to cool slightly.

Add the cake crumbs to the butter mixture and stir until well combined. Use your hands to roll 1 tablespoonful of the cake-crumb mixture around each marshmallow to enclose and form a ball.

Combine the coconut and chocolate sprinkles on a large plate. Roll each chocolate ball in the coconut mixture to evenly coat. Place on a tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 1 hour or until firm.

Notes

You can make these baubles up to 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container in the fridge. For a more festive flavour, you can use coloured and flavoured marshmallows for this recipe.
