We love cooking, try these great recipes with your unit or Patrol.

What You Need

Chocolate!! A 200g bar of your favorite choc, milk, plain or white it doesn't really matter.

Condensed Milk 200g of this sticky stuff, don't fight over who scoops their finger round the empty tin!

Cocoa Powder or Drinking Chocolate Powder for rolling them in.

Anything else you want to throw in, peanuts, rasins, apricots etc

What To Do

1. Melt the chocolate in a bowl inside a saucepan with hot water in it. Warning- Don't get the water in the chocolate or everything goes horribly wrong!

2. Put the condensed milk into a mixing bowl along with anything else you want to add.

3. Put the melted chocolate in the bowl too and mix like crazy as it begins to set!

4. Pour into a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper and level out.

5. Leave to set, in a fridge if possible or if you're doing it in your meeting, in a cool place.

6. When it is harder (or you can't wait any longer!) scoop teaspoons of the mix into your hands and mold into little balls. Roll them in cocoa or drinking chocolate and arrange nicely.

7. The truffles should be kept in the fridge and get better as they cool and harden even more- it is worth the wait! You could even make a nice gift box to put them in and give them to a friend as a homemade treat.

What You Need

125g (4oz) butter or margarine, softened.

150g (5oz) Caster Sugar

1 Egg

150g (5oz) Plain White Flour

2.5ml (1/4 tsp) Baking Powder

Pinch of Salt

125g (4oz) Peanut Butter

175g (6oz) Raisins

What To Do

1. Put all the ingredients in a bowl except for the raisins and beat together until well blended. Stir in the raisins.

2. Spoon large teaspoons of the mixture onto lightly greased baking sheets, leaving room for spreading.

3. Bake at 190c (375F) mark 5 for about 15 mins, or until golden brown around the edges. Allow to cool slightly before lifting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

We just about managed to make these in the meeting time- we then sold them for Comic Relief.
