Father's Day Fruit and Nut

For Father's Day I decided to make something a bit rustic for my dad. I know he likes his chocolate, and especially the fruit and nut variety. So instead of just buying a bar I thought I'd have a go at making one for him. (A bit more personal that way - plus you get to lick the bowl and spoon when you've finished making it!)

It might not be the prettiest chocolate bar/slab in the world, but I got to feel like a domestic goddess while I was making it and I got to put a big smile on my old man's face. (I was also able to sample some once it was ready...chef's rights!!!)

In case you can't work it out - I tried to write DAD in fruit and nut pieces on the top.

I'm also thinking this may be the way forward for further celebratory occassions - birthdays, easter, Mother's Day, Christmas.........(hope everyone likes chocolate!)

I think it was a success. Happy Father's Day Dad xx
