About

Fruit and nut chocolate bars will never taste the same again after you try these! A cross between a delicious chocolate and a good biscuit, they can be served any time, but seem especially appropriate after dinner. The gold leaf adds luxury. I always make them at Christmas and they can be a very special gift, packed into a beautiful box. If you want to make nuggets, you will need silicone petit four tins.
