Chocolate Strawberry Jellies (Fauxribos)

These are 2.5 syns for the whole lot, I get about 30 jellies per batch and have tried them in different flavours, jaffa cake is also a really good one.  They're a bit like the chocolate strawberry Quality Streets without all the syns!!

Ingredients:

1 sachet sugar free jelly crystals orange flavour
2 sachets gelatin
1 Muller Light raspberry and cranberry yogurt (the strawberry has bits in which isn’t as good
1 tablespoon coco powder
1 sachet chocolate strawberry options
Few drops strawberry essence

Method:

Put jelly, strawberry essence and gelatin sachets to a measuring jug and dissolve in 400ml boiling water

Fill your ice cube tray to about 2/3 full per ice cube using 250ml of the jelly mixture, this will be anywhere from 30-40 jellies depending on the size of your ice cube tray.  Keep 150ml back for the chocolate layer

Put the ice cube trays in the fridge to partially set, this will take about 20 minutes

When the 20 minutes are up add the muller light to the remaining jelly mix and stir well. 

Using a small amount of boiling water, mix the two chocolate powders to form a thick paste, you want it to be just thick enough that it’s not a powder when you add to the jelly mix.

Add your chocolate paste to the jelly/muller light liquid and stir well until it’s a consistent chocolate colour

Get your partially set ice cube trays out of the fridge

Pour the jelly/chocolate/yogurt mix into the moulds, this will form the ‘base’ of your chocolate strawberry jellies.  I use a long handled teaspoon and sort of spoon it on so it doesn’t go everywhere.  Fill the moulds and pop back in the fridge

Leave to set for about 3-4 hours.   

Depending on your moulds they should pop straight out, if they don’t dip a knife in hot water and use the flat edge to cut around the jelly, it’ll slide between the sweet and the mould and they’ll come straight out
