Cooking Instructions
- 1
Melt the broken up chocolate, syrup and butter in a glass bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and stir until glossy and combined
- 2
Line a 12 hole muffin tray with paper cases
- 3
Mix the chocolate into the cornflakes / rice crispie cereal and stir until they're all covered. Nutribix (GF weetabix) works well in these for a proper nest appearance
- 4
Spoon some of the mixture in equal amounts into each paper case and use your finger to make an indentation in the middle of each nest for the eggs
- 5
Add 3 mini eggs to each nest and let chill in the fridge for 2 hours to set
- 6
Add chenille chicks before serving
- 7
I used a mixture of gluten-free puffed rice cereal and hoops this time with Haribo Easter mix as decoration

Vickys Easter Simnel Cake, GF DF EF SF Vickys Easter Simnel Cake, GF DF EF SF
Not a lot of people know this but Simnel Cake is actually a Mothers Day recipe! They're most associated with our traditional Easter celebrations, Simnel cakes are a spicy fruit cake with a marzipan layer baked into the middle. The 11 marzipan balls that decorate the top represent the true disciples of Jesus. This cake is eaten after Lent and going back to Mothers Day, was usually shared at that time between a Mother and her daughters Vicky@Jacks Free-From Cookbook -

This was originally my apple cake recipe but I had pears to use before they got over ripe and so I added those instead. They were just as nice, I added a little less cinnamon than I would if I'd used apples so as not to overpower their more delicate flavour. I've included the apple recipe as the last 'direction step' Vicky@Jacks Free-From Cookbook -

Easter always poses problems for people with allergies to things like dairy and soya, every holiday does really. I hate for my kids to miss out on any treats.
