These are wonderful! The only problem is not eating too much.

1 small jar peanut butter (I used crunchy)
1 dl syrup
9 dl crushed cornflakes
150g dark choc

Melt the syrup and peanut butter. Add cornflakes. Put in a tin (I used 18 x 25cms). Melt choc and spread over. If you donīt want to wait too long before you eat it, put it in the freezer for about 30mins.

Is this the 'people with cat names and avatars thread' or can I join? I have three cats if it helps?

dl is a Decilitre, which is 100ml :) It tripped me up when I was reading European's recipes on blogs!

Oh, and the recipe sounds super nom!

1 dl = 100ml or 4 fl.ozs, does that help? I just weighed the 9 dl of cornflakes and it is around 4 oz. Yes they are way too good, very bad for the waistline!

Sorry to hear about the cat. I had to have one of mine put down last Easter... her sister got very lonely because at the time we only had the two... then a local rescue place was looking for a home for two sister cats who were both 15... so then I had three.

I might try making a smaller amougt.... peanuts butter and me tend to end in me eating it all! How big is the jar of peanut butter?

I think about 300g - 10 or 11 ozs. I didnīt have a full jar. I donīt think it matters much I think itīll taste good whatever!
Let me know how you get on and if you like it.
My cat was 12 and had a brain tumour. One of the others nearly died as she stopped eating. Her immune system broke down and she ended up skin and bone. 5 days at the vet and loads of drugs. Then she had to have some teeth out once she recovered. The other one had to have 9 teeth out over two operations. They are both nearly 16. I stopped counting the cost after a while it all cost a fortune. Still I was very lucky, we could afford it and we still have two lovely cats.
PS my first cat when I was five I called Pansy....
