  • Once set, remove from the pan and cut into 12 squares.

Notes

Make Ahead
You can make this a day or two in advance—just keep it in the fridge.
Batch Cooking
Double the recipe if you want extra (trust me, it won’t last long).
Storage
Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Freezing
Yep, you can freeze it! Wrap individual pieces in clingfilm and pop them in a container. Thaw them in the fridge when you want some.
  • Make It Dairy-Free: Swap the milk chocolate for a dairy-free alternative, use dairy-free mini eggs (Moo Free do some great ones) and use plant-based butter.
