They don't last long at all - not in my house!

I usually just melt the chocolate and then add cornflakes/crispies bit by bit until there is no runny chocolate left.

I usually use equal quanitites of chocolate, butter and golden syrup - about 4oz. Melt them all together in a saucepan, then keep stirring in cornflakes or rice crispies until there is no runny mixture left. If you keep them in an airtight container, they last about 3 days max, then they start to go a bit soft or sticky. Having said that the don't usually see the end of the day with my kids!! You can always add a few raisins too if you like - into the choccy mix before the flakes.

i find that these are the easiest to make with my toddlers when they are restless, i usually buy the supercook chocolate and follow the instructions on the back of that
