What the original account establishes

These notes distinguish the recorded result from quantities or settings the contributor did not specify. Follow each source link to the original passage.

  • Step 1 was 2kg of premium-quality Tesco Value chocolate at a mere 25p a bar, funny looks in the supermarket queue, and a tin made from a foil tray and sellotape. The chocolate was melted in the microwave by zapping at maximum for a few seconds, panicking and stirring dementedly, which worked; a green drink was created in the salad drawer of the fridge, the salad evicted; a pimpload of rice crispies was poured into chocolate and pressed into the bottom of the tin as the base. The nougat was put in the microwave for experimental purposes and found to get very hot, then laid on the base. Finally the creation was bathed in molten chocolate, some of which escaped through a hole in the tin, and the makers were pleased. Source 1 · Source 2 · Source 3 · Source 4

Step 1 – Bought 2kg of premium quality tesco value chocolate – a mere 25p a bar. Nice. Got funny looks in supermarket queue of which we have no photos. Created tin thing out of a foil tray and sellotape and we were ready to begin…

Ingredients on a table: rice pops, marshmallows, nougat, dairy toffees and chocolate bars

Step 2 – Chocolate melted in microwave by zapping at max voltage for a few seconds then panicking and dementedly stirring. Worked well. People arrived to witness the pimp. Drink was pimped, it was green and created in the salad drawer of the fridge. Salad shunned and evicted. A pimpload of rice crispies was poured into chocolate and pressed into the bottom of the tin. The base was thus made and this pleased us.

Step 3 – The nougat was placed in the microwave for experimentation purposes, and the experiment was enlightening – nougat get frickin hot. The nougat was lovingly placed on the pimp-to-be. The pimp was a-comin together. We smiled. We had done well.

Step 4. Beautiful Creation was bathed in molten chocolate. Chocolate escaped out of hole in tin. Bugger. But we had done well and the pimp is good. It pleases us.
