Base Ingredients

  • 200 g Milk Chocolate Can substitute with dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • 50 g Unsalted Butter
  • 180 g Mini Marshmallows Regular-sized marshmallows can be substituted, adjust melting time.
  • 100 g Rice Krispies Cocoa Pops can be used for a chocolaty variant.

Decorating Ingredients

  • 50 g White Chocolate For drizzling over the puddings.
  • White Sugarpaste Optional, can use pre-colored sugarpaste.
  • Green Food Colour Gel For coloring sugarpaste.
  • Red Food Colour Gel For coloring sugarpaste.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a saucepan, combine the milk chocolate and unsalted butter. Place over low to medium heat until melted, or microwave together.
  • Stir in the mini marshmallows until fully combined.
  • In a large mixing bowl, pour in the Rice Krispies.
  • Add the melted chocolate and marshmallow mixture, stirring until all the cereal is well coated.
  • Let the mixture cool slightly, then use a tablespoon to scoop and roll into small pudding balls.
  • Dampen your hands to minimize sticking, and place the balls on a baking tray lined with baking parchment.

Chilling and Decorating

  • Refrigerate the pudding balls for about 30 minutes to firm them up.
  • While they chill, melt the white chocolate and transfer it to a piping bag.
  • Color the sugarpaste using red and green food gels. Roll the green into small holly leaves and the red into berries.
  • Once the pudding balls are firm, drizzle with melted white chocolate and add the decorations.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Refrigeration is okay but let them come to room temperature before serving. Freezing is not recommended.
