My children are slowly growing up, and the time when mum is the only source of food in the home will come to an end. There are some dishes which they can prepare themselves. Recently, I have been able to sleep 10 minutes longer in the morning because my daughter prepares breakfast herself. It is nice, but it is sad to think that the time when they don't need me is coming.

Recently, my daughter suggested preparing a dessert together. She wanted something that was equally chocolaty, fruity and sweet. We made a dessert which met all these expectations. We wrapped dark chocolate, seasonal fruit and marshmallows in French pastry. We ate it together hot from the plate. It was nice and yummy.

Ingredients:
1 pack of chilled French pastry
150g of dark chocolate
a couple of strawberries
a handful of blueberries
a handful of raspberries
75g of marshmallows
2 tablespoons of milk

Heat the oven up to 185C. Cover a baking sheet with baking paper.
Place the dark chocolate down the centre of the pastry from top to bottom, at a width of 1/3 of the pastry. Put the fruit and marshmallows onto it. Cut notches in the French pastry on either side of the stuffing to make 1.5-cm strips. Braid the pastry by crossing the strips, alternating from right to left to make a plait. Don't stick the strips together. Smooth the dough with milk. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Serve at once.

Enjoy your meal!
