Boo! Halloween is here, so put on your scariest outfit and invite everyone around for these terrifying treats.


Makes 24


Ingredients:


  • 3 gold-strength gelatine leaves 
  • 300ml thickened cream
  • 1/3 cup (75g) caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 24 ready-made chocolate tart cases 
  • Cocoa powder, to dust

Direction:




1) Soak gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes to soften.

2) Meanwhile, combine cream, sugar and vanilla in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to just below boiling point.

3) Squeeze excess water from the gelatine, then add leaves to the cream mixture and stir to dissolve. Strain into a jug and set aside to cool. Pour the cooled mixture into the tart cases and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.

4) When ready to serve, place a paper doily over the tarts and dust with cocoa powder to resemble spider webs.
