actually now I've finished making them, let me try to work out how much they cost. The box I put them in was "recycled" from some chocs the boyfriend gave me, so that cost nothing (but you could probably wrap them up in cellophane or some other home-made arrangement as well). The choc was good quality Divine dark 200g (I only made a third of the recipe and still had some left over). That costs £1.98. Two tablespoons of cream costs about?? 30p tops? 33g of butter costs about 20p. A tablespoon of coffee and some cocoa to roll them in are hardly anything, maybe 10p together? So all up about £2.50, £2.60 for a nice present that is dead easy, takes an hour or so and tastes very suave and yummy. Think I might be using these again ...
