The recipe is very easy, the ingredients in English are at the bottom of my post! You melt cocoa fat and then mix it with the grains and put it in cups and voilá!

Thanks Cilla! It was -17C this morning and I must say I prefer that to your temperatures, even if it is a little too much! I hope that it gets better soon, terrible with the bush fires! xKajsa
