Minty Bark
The first time I heard about bark was when I just moved to UK. Â As you imagine it was the first time I tried it too. It was simple and yummy. Never thought again about this kind of dessert but this year my eldest insisted on making a dessert together for Easter.
I thought hard but I know that she usually gets quite bored of mixing things and sitting next to me so something simple had to be made. This is when I turned to my laptop and my so loved Pinterest. I love using Pinterest for inspiration.
I found lots of recipes that I loved one of which is this and then the recipe for something quite simple.
Lovely looking don’t you think? But I didn’t have the mini eggs so thought “Never mind I will do something myself” and this is what we end up with:
Your child will love the activity and the result! Enjoy!
