I’m a savvy mum – how I make my own homemade Costa chocolate twists for just 65p… and they taste amazing
A WOMAN has shared how she makes her own chocolate twists at home, for just 65p.
So if you like the tasty treat from Costa, but don’t want to keep splashing the cash on the pricey snack, you’ve come to the right place.
Savvy mum-of-two Casey Major-Hunce took to social media to show off her recipe, leaving many open-mouthed.
She explained that to make her chocolate twists, you will need two rolls of puff pastry, a pot of custard, chocolate chips and some milk.
Casey noted: “How you can make these for 65p.
“Super easy, just three ingredients – custard, puff pastry and some chocolate chips.”
She then advised: “Open your puff pastry out and top with a few spoonfuls of custard.
“Cover the pastry top with your desired amount of chocolate chips.
“Pop your pastry on top, and cut into six segments using a pizza cutter.
“You could cut it into 10 segments if you want thinner ones.
“Bake in the oven at 200 for 20-25 mins and enjoy.”
Casey demonstrated her quick and easy snack recipe and shortly after, once the sweet treats were cooked and removed from the oven, the foodie filmed herself as she sprinkled over some icing sugar.
While a chocolate twist from Costa will set you back £3.05, for just 65p, Casey’s hack is a very affordable alternative, saving you £2.40 per bake.
The mother later explained: “It’s [65p] per serving. It’s £1.25 for a roll but you can make four smaller ones and just fold it over so [it] makes them cheaper.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @majormumhacks, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed a staggering 402,300 views in just one day.
Social media users were stunned at the mouth-watering recipe and many took to the comments to express this.
One person said: “My daughter loves these. I’ll have to try this.”
Another added: “Life changed.”
A third commented: “Ingredients added to my shopping list…”
Whilst someone else shared: “Omg I needed this, I spend my life buying them.”
Meanwhile, another user penned: “You absolute legend!! Doing this in the morning.”
At the same time, another TikTok user explained: “Thanks for this, it’s going to save me so much money.”
