  2. Now make a bain marie by taking a saucepan smaller than the glass mixing bowl and pour water into the bowl such that the bowl sits on top of the pan, but does not quite touch the water.

  5. Now, add some cornflakes to the mixture and coat fully with the chocolate. I've not measured how many cornflakes here. Just add enough to be fully covered by chocolate.
