These lovely little meringues are baked in two parts and then glued together with melted chocolate. They end up looking just like field mushrooms, and kids in particular will love them. Use them to decorate a Yule log at Christmas, or make them in the autumn as a treat to share with friends after (or during) a good mushroom hunt.
