When planning the menu for my mum's Mother's Day lunch recently, I was told on the phone by my niece that in no uncertain terms, she would not be coming if there was no chocolate on offer.

Crap! I hadn't planned ANYTHING with chocolate.

I think these won her over on the day though.....

Proper melt-in-the-mouth buttery goodness.

You can't just stop at one.  Believe me!
