Ingredients

• 2 cups chocolate cake
• 1/2 cup choco chips
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 no milky bar
• 1 tbsp tutti frutti

Instructions

• Take chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl and place it on a sauce pan containing water.We are going to melt the chocolate using double boiler method.The chocolate should not be directly in contact with water or flame so we are placing the bowl over the sauce pan, or you can place a plate inside the sauce pan and place the bowl on it.Once chocolate is melted set it aside.
• Crumble the cake, add honey and melted chocolate.
• Mix well.Now using a scooper, scoop out.I used my measuring spoon, we are doing this just to have all the bon bons of the same size.
• Make small lemon sized balls, arrange in liners and refrigerate it.Take white chocolate in a heat proof bowl.
• Melt it using double boiler method.Take a spoon of it and pour on the chilled bon bons.
• Immediately stud tutti frutti over it so that it sticks to the chocolate.You can chill it until serving time.
  

Notes

• My chocolate cake was moist so needed only less melted chocolate,
  if you cake or pudding is dry you may need more.
• Traditionally we use christmas pudding for making bon bons, but you can use any chocolate cake or  christmas fruit cake too.
• I replaced golden syrup with honey.
