For me baking is just part of Christmas preparations and since blogging became part of my life (dare I say it) over 8 years ago, and as I was in need of a little choccie fix last week, these were perfect. Very easy. Will keep in the fridge, separated in layers by baking paper…wrap with care, give with love. You will be the fave neighbour, work colleague, friend, nanna, mum, dad ever…what are you waiting for? Get in the kitchen right now. This is Festive Frenzy week…remember?
