Ideal as a last-minute stocking filler, or turn into a wonderful evening-by-the-fire hamper by adding a cosy blanket, novel or DVD, and a pair of slipper socks.

Ingredients

Sunflower oil, for greasing

50 g milk chocolate, chopped

100 g dark chocolate, chopped

sea salt flakes, to taste

4 cinnamon sticks

You will need

4 empty small yoghurt pots, washed and dried

4 muffin cases

cellophane and twine or string, for wrapping

4 mugs

4 gift tag and pen, for labelling

Method

  1. Very lightly grease the fromage frais pots with oil and set aside until needed.
  2. Melt the milk chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of just-simmering water, stirring occasionally, then divide between the prepared pots. Place in the fridge or a cold place for around 30 mins or until set.
  3. Once the milk chocolate layer is firm, melt the dark chocolate in a bowl as before, then pour it over the milk chocolate. Leave the pots to set for 15 mins, then sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt onto each.
  4. Cut a hole in the bottom of each paper cake case and push a cinnamon stick through. Push the end of the stick into the middle of each pot so that the paper case is upside down – it will help to hold the cinnamon stick in place while it sets.
  5. Leave to set overnight, then turn out and discard the pot and paper case. Wrap each in cellophane tied with twine. Tie each stick to a mug, or simply place inside the mug, and write a tag to read ‘Just add hot milk’.
