Stumbled across this and i thought it will be of great benefits to our readers. Things you can make mid-December, things that will get you feeling festive, but won't have gone off by the big day. These will all make lovely presents, are delicious, pretty, fun and the kids can help with all of it. And you can make them a couple of weeks in advance of the big day. The kids can pretty much do all of it, they look cool and are really fun to use too. You can add flavourings such as cinnamon, chilli or nutmeg for a bit of a seasonal theme, and you can go wild or be more restrained with the sprinkles (there would be no shame in adding a few mini marshmallows either).
You just need to melt chocolate, stir in drinking chocolate powder, then scoop and pat it on to plastic spoons, decorate, let them set and pack them up in cellophane bags. For 12 spoons, you'll need 200g milk or dark chocolate and 100g drinking chocolate. I'd give three or four spoons per present, along with the instructions: "Plunge into half a cup of hot milk, allow to soften for a couple of minutes, then stir and top up with more hot milk."
