haha, many thanks Skintcatt - I confess I never made them before so didn't appreciate it was that simple.

I love the sound of them Brighton Belle - but I couldn't have a jar of nutella in the house - otherwise they still wouldn't get made and I'd sit there with a teaspoon & the jar!

Brighton_belle

it's easy for me - i am not a great chocolate fan and I don't like nutella at all - this is to make for someone else, so no temptation at all:D.

What do they actually taste like?????????????

Anyone made/make them?

Skint_Catt

I'm guessing with a little hazelnut flavouring (or syn some hazelnuts) they wouldn't taste all dislike ferrero rocher when they're chilled.

Hi BB!:j:j

They taste devine - just like the real thing. The only problem I had was getting them to stick together in little balls. Seem to recollect I sat there with the bowl and a spoon......:o didn't lose much that week either:p!!:rotfl::rotfl:

EEK! And that's from the SW website! Though divided by 4 isn't so bad I guess.

thanks SC couldnt see it ont he website. Wondering why this wouldnt be free on EE? I understand synd on red and green because of the rice and haddie but surely theres no reason for it to have syns on EE?

Skint_Catt

I can't see why it wouldn't be free either! Enjoy - let me know how it is - I might try it soon!
