Stage 1: We drew a rough outline of the curly wurly and by rough, we mean rough!
Stage 2: We spent ages trying to melt the toffee in a bowl over boiling water and eventually managed to pile lumps onto the template and add an extension to the curly wurly!
Stage 3: We put the hot toffee into the garage to cool, as it was too big for the fridge! But only took about an hour.
Stage 4: We melted down the chocolate and spooned on top of the toffee, which went….well?! Then let it cool and set for about two hours in the garage again.
Stage 5: We then scraped chocolate onto the back and with a fork, scoured in the criss cross pattern. Let it set in the garage…again!
Stage 6: Served up to 8 people with a bread knife, and consequently, no teeth 🙂
