I thought it would be cruel to not share this recipe with you all, although some of you who may be dieting might think it's cruel of me to share it :D

I was inspired by some of my face book friends to make these yummy treats - they were quite quick to brag about their trip to beautiful Montville last weekend, indulging themselves with a to die for English morning-tea with a mountain view, a visit to the fudge shop, pottering in and out of little nooks and cranny's in shops full of treasures.....you know who you are! :P

So here you have it, easy homemade yummy Chocolate fudge bars to indulge ourselves -

 whether it be a little treat along side a dainty tea cup full of your fave tea, that special something to eat while you enjoy your 'mummy time' while the kids are tucked in bed, a cooking experience to share with your little ones or simply cook them because you can!!!
