My dad gives me half a sheep each winter (He's from the Highlands and gets them dirt cheap!) and we eat very well in the cold weather! I rarely buy it from the supermarket now unless it's whoopsied!

i didnt use vanilla essecne or nuts

golden syrup cost me £0.93 (tub) from tesoc
plain chocolate value 0.24
coco powder £1.24 (tub)
flour value 30p
butter

you hardly use any of the syrup or the cocoa powder so as i say the actual recipe costs less than £2.40 for a tray
