MAKES 8 // COOKING TIME 20 min
INGREDIENTS
100 g cooking chocolate, grated
4 bananas, peeled
Handful of Jelly Tots
Handful of white mini marshmallows
1 stick black liquorice
METHOD
1. Place ¾ of the chocolate in a double boiler and melt slowly. Add the remaining chocolate and stir until fully melted.
2. Chop the bananas in half and dip each half in the chocolate. Leave the front parts uncoated. Allow to dry for 5 minutes, then dip again.
3. Dip a few of the Jelly Tots in the chocolate and press them firmly on the bananas to make the penguins’ feet. Slice a few Jelly Tots in half and attach as the beaks.
4. Slice the mini marshmallows in thirds to make the eyes. Attach with melted chocolate. Snip off small pieces of liquorice to make the pupils.
5. Repeat until all penguins are finished, then serve.
