A couple of weeks back I was invited by Argos to film a few fun, family friendly and fabulously tasty Christmas recipes.
The first in the series are these Mini Chocolate Christmas Pudding Bites. Perfect little after-dinner and party treats, they are also a very delicious way of using up any leftover Christmas Pudding this festive season.
Mini Chocolate Christmas Pudding Bites Makes 10
For the bites:
50g finely chopped dark chocolate
175g cooled Christmas pudding
1 tablespoon golden syrup
For the decoration:
50g dark chocolate
finely chopped 1 tsp vegetable fat e.g. ‘Trex’
50g white ready to roll icing
50g ready to roll red fondant icing
50g ready to roll green fondant icing
1. Grease and line a baking sheet
2. To make the bites: in a heatproof bowl suspended above a pan of simmering water gently melt the dark chocolate
3. Crumble the cooled Christmas pudding into a large mixing bowl, add the golden syrup and stir to combine
5. Using a pair of disposable vinyl gloves roll small lumps of mixture into balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter and place on the prepared baking tray.
7. To decorate: in a heatproof bowl suspended above a pan of simmering water gently melt the dark chocolate together with the tablespoon of vegetable fat (this ensures a smooth dipping chocolate). Once melted, dip the firmed bites into the chocolate and place aside to set
Happy festive baking!
The videos were produced in association with Argos, who have a great range of larder fridges such as the one seen in this film. Pop back shortly for the second film in the series.

Yum! I feel so Christmassy now!
ReplyDeleteI think I'd much prefer a plate of these to the more the usual dollop of Christmas pudding. Especially with a small glass of wine.
