What’s the serving size?
Serves 2
What do I need?
- 375 mL milk
- 100 g dark chocolate
- 100 g milk chocolate
- 60 mL chocolate topping
- 4 plain sweet biscuits such as Arnott’s Milk Coffee, finely crushed
- 6 White marshmallows
- 6 bamboo skewers
- 125 mL Bailey’s Irish Cream
- 80 mL vodka, chilled
How do I make it?
- Add milk and dark and milk chocolate to a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth. Pour into a jug and refrigerate for 2 hours or until chilled.
- Pour some of the chocolate topping onto a saucer and dip the rim of each glass into it and then into the crushed biscuit.
- Pour remaining chocolate topping over the back of a spoon into glasses.
- Thread a marshmallow onto each skewer. Cover the ends of the skewer with aluminium foil to prevent burning. Gently brown the marshmallows over an open flame or cook under the oven grill until marshmallows are lightly toasted.
- Pour milk and chocolate mix into a cocktail shaker and add Bailey’s and vodka. Shake vigorously to combine. Divide between glasses and lay a marshmallow skewer over each glass. Light the marshmallow when serving.
