I cannot believe I haven't seen or heard of this before. The hair on my arms are tingling. It was the same when I first saw Matt Harding's video, or Paul Potts' first time on BGT ("So, you work in carphone warehouse, and you did that?"), or watching this Discovery Channel tribute.
It does explain this, though!
I've just got this by email and thought I'd share. I wonder if Grannymar on Monday or Deborah on Tast.ie will take up the idea?
KitKat for serious chocaholics:
We decided to pimp a KitKat Chunky, although there are 2 others already, we thought we could do better in honour of this fabulous snack! We wanted to go BIG.
Ingredients:
- 30 x Sainsbury's Luxury Belgian Milk Chocolate
- 3 x ScotBlok Chocolate Flavour Cake Covering
- 6 x Loacker Quadratini chocolate wafers
- 1 x wallpaper dipping trough
- 1 x sticky backed vinyl floor tile
Day 1: We cut out the KitKat logo from the floor tile and stuck it to the bottom of the trough (in reverse).
Melted about one third of the chocolate and poured it into the mould. The kids have never seen so much melted chocolate before.
Day 2: The chocolate set overnight. Next stage was to arrange the wafers in five layers along the chocolate.
Then melted the rest of the chocolate and poured it carefully around the wafers, then over the top. The house was starting to smell like Cadbury World. MMMMMMMM! We could not fit it in the fridge flat, cos it was far too big.
Day 3: Woke up early to check the BigKat. Still not Hard enough! Had to put it in fridge, but on a slant.
Finally at around 6pm our creation was hard enough to be born! It turned out surprisingly easy.
Anyone for a slice?
