Instructions

Step 1

Choose your favourite festive stirrer flavour. Lightly paint the sides and bottom of silicone chocolate moulds with a little sunflower oil. This is a great tip to stop your chocolate sticking!

Step 2

Place your broken chocolate into a heatproof bowl over a deep pan of simmering water and stir. When nearly melted, add your additional ingredients (not including the toppings) and stir through until combined. Continue to stir for a few minutes.

Step 3

Divide across three moulds (fill to the top).

Step 4

Sprinkle with your toppings (if you are making the Christmas pudding stirrer do not add your white chocolate or holly leaves until set and removed from the mould) and set in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.

Step 5

After 20-30 minutes, your chocolate should be starting to set but be pliable enough to insert a lolly pop stick into the centre of each. When you've done this, allow to set for another 2 hours.

Step 6

Remove your stirrers from the moulds. If using a silicone mould you should just be able to easily remove the stirrer by pushing from the bottom using your thumbs. If using yogurt pots or an ice cube tray, loosen by gently slipping a knife down each side before flipping out onto a hard surface.

Step 7

Wrap in your plastic gift bag, write your gift tag detailing the below hot chocolate cooking instructions, attached to a piece of string and tie in a bow whilst also securing your pine branch.

Step 8

To use your Chocolate Stirrer, heat 250ml of Arla Cravendale milk in a pan, pour into your favourite festive mug and stir through your chocolate stick until fully melted- relax and enjoy!

Enjoy!
