Tips and Comments

  • Can be made with 'milk' chocolate if you prefer a sweeter version.
  • Vegan marshmallow topping is, of course, optional but these can be found in most health food shops quite easily.
  • Soya margarine can be used instead of shortening and taste just as good but the result will hold together less reliably.
