Thanks everyone, didn't think of reading everyone's reply on the link and hmmmm and ahhhh ing over the recipe but found it..

I already had the malteser cake recipe and kids and kids friends love it, in fact the whole of Brownie camp loved it so much, everyone wanted to know who's mother made it....
But doing it with mint aero balls sound absolutely fab and I think a trip to Asda tonight is in order... Will let you know what the tasters (DD1 and DD2 and DH) here think... I can hear the pounds jumping on my hips...:rotfl:

My partner has a big mint choc aero somewhere, tempted to make these but he'd go crackers if I use his chocolate! (they are on bogof in Tesco for the big bar still I think)

Did anyone get round to making these? I am really curious as to whether anyone elses looks better upside down or is it just mine?? :eek:

How deep should these be as it does not state on the website? Also, I wonder if these could be frozen and would they come out alright again, does anyone know?

I have just worked out the calories, protein, carbohydrate, sugar, fat and salt content for the aero recipe and it is shocking. There is
4,201.25 calories
34.12 grams of protein
421.05 grams of carbohydrate
266.05 grams of sugar
255 grams of fat
2.675 grams of salt. :eek:

I worked out the above as I am a diabetic and therefore I am supposed to know the carbohydrate content of what I eat. Oh well it tasted nice until I worked out the nutrional information.

Well, made them and they were lovely, They looked good any way up. I made the base then pushed the aero balls into it and then poured the melted chocolate on top. Took them to booksale today just for us mums and kids to eat (we were fundraising) and everyone loved them and they were gone very quickly. Looking at the calorie count, I am glad I only got a small piece
