Flatten with the palm of your hand and using a spoon make a dent in the middle.

Melt the toffees and or fudge. I used 12 toffees that were going soft in the cupboard and threw in about 4 pieces of fudge for good measure. You could use either or both, soft toffees are better as when these set you don't want to break your teeth on them.

fill each dent with a dollop of toffee/fudge mix.




Bake gas number 4 for around 12 minutes.

leave them to cool on the tray, if you try to lift them hot the toffee middles will fall out lol

I found the best way to get them off the tray was to twist them off in a circle.



Perfect with a cuppa.
