March 9, 2017 at 2:05 pmBest use for left over chocolate is to melt it down and make Rice Krispie or Cornflake nests topped with Mini Eggs, fun to make with the kids (well the 3 year old, the 1 year old would make a little too much mess) and even more fun to eat.
Come to think of it, it may be a couple of weeks early but I think she would like to do that this weekend!
