Method
- Break the milk chocolate into small pieces and put in a microwavable bowl or cup. Melt in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring after each burst, until smooth and completely melted. Allow to cool for a few minutes to thicken slightly.
- Dip the rims of the ice cream cones into the melted chocolate, then put upright in glasses and leave to set.
- Chop 2 of the strawberries into tiny pieces. Reserve 6 of each of the other fruits (including 6 nectarine slices) and cut the leftover fruit into small pieces. Divide the chopped fruit between the cones, filling right to the top.
- Cut the reserved strawberries into slices and the grapes and blueberries in half. To decorate, add 1 tsp yogurt to each cone and top with the remaining fruit.
- Little help: Don’t let water come into contact with the chocolate as it melts or it will go lumpy.
- Leftovers: Make a filling and fresh breakfast smoothie by blitzing together leftover fruit with yogurt and oats.
