Method

step 1

Line two 12-hole cupcake trays with paper cases (or use a silicone cupcake tray). Melt both of the chocolates, the butter and golden syrup together in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Once smooth, stir in the vanilla and crumble in seven of the wheat biscuits, making sure there are both crushed pieces and large chunks.
step 2

Scoop heaped tablespoons of the mixture into the holes of the tin and press the middles down using the back of the tablespoon to create a nest shape. Chill for 2 hrs until set.
step 3

Once set, crush the remaining wheat biscuit and sprinkle this over the nests. Sit two M&M'S® Choco Eggs into the middle of each nest. Will keep in an airtight container in a cool place for up to four days.

Baking tips

Make sure to melt the chocolate over a low heat and keep stirring to ensure it doesn't split.
