Cook the Christmas pudding according to packet instructions. Usually, this is for around 2 minutes in the microwave. Leave to cool.
400 g vegan Christmas pudding
Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave or using a bain-marie.
100g g dark chocolate
Break up the Christmas pudding in a bowl, and add the dark chocolate and maple syrup. Mix well then refrigerate for 30 minutes.
100g g dark chocolate, 400 g vegan Christmas pudding, 2 tablespoon maple syrup
Take 1 tablespoon of the mixture at a time and roll into a ball, place on a tray or plate, until they're all done.
Chop the red glacé cherries into tiny pieces – to look like a berry. Chop the green glacé cherries into slices, to represent the holly leaves.
2 red glacé cherries, 3 green glacé cherries
Melt the white chocolate in the microwave or in a bain-marie.
40 g white chocolate
Using a teaspoon, drizzle the white chocolate onto each ball, allowing it to spill down them – if that naturally happens!
Before the chocolate sets, take one piece of red cherry and two pieces of green cherry and place them on top of the mini Christmas pudding, in the rough shape of holly (as pictured). Repeat until they're all done.
Refrigerate for 20 minutes, make sure the chocolate has set, and enjoy!
