It's filled with a chocolatey, nutty cake and mousse combo (because to replicate the ganache of an actual Ferrero Rocher filing would be way too sickly) and it's totally not even that difficult to make, sort of.

Granted you'll need some specific equipment - such as an 8-inch chocolate mould, which can be easily sourced online, plus if you want to make it look like a Ferrero Rocher, you'll need to invest in some gold foil and a very large cupcake casing.

But once you've sourced the right paraphernalia, the rest is really a case of baking a cake, and glueing it together with layers of mousse, popping it in your pre-preapred chocolate mould and painting the outside with a nutty chocolate spread.

So basically, what better way to treat your whole family to an Easter they'll always remember, than by presenting them with a Ferrero Rocher the size of a football?

Alternatively, you might decide that your family isn't worthy of such a delight - it wouldn't be very charitable of you, but we'd completely understand. In which case, once you've photographed it for Pinterest, you could just sit down with a spoon and eat the whole thing yourself.
