Another sweet treat that can be a bit challenging is home-made hokey pokey. Here the Whittakers team have done all the work and cleverly combined it into their delicious chocolate. With the addition of ginger, almonds and red jube sweets, it’s my take on a Christmas florentine. 

Ingredients

200 g Whittaker's Hokey Pokey Mini Chocolate Bites
50 g Chocolate buttons
100 g Red jubes, or red snake sweets, diced
½ cup Almonds, Whole and unpeeled
2 tbsp Crystalised ginger, finely chopped

Directions

  1. Chop up the chocolate into small pieces and place half into a metal bowl; add the chocolate buttons.
  2. Place over a pot of gently simmering water and stir the chocolate until it begins to melt.  
  3. Remove from the heat and stir in all the remaining ingredients.
  4. Spoon into individual moulds or make small circles on non-stick baking paper and allow to cool. 
  5. Once set remove from moulds and gift wrap ready to give away.

    I really liked this recipe, it was easy. Instead of putting in molds, i put it in a slice tin and chopped it like rocky road. And because I like ginger, I would keep the ginger in bigger chunks as it seemed to disappear. Great recipe!!
