Easy Homemade Kinder Delight

With just a few ingredients, you can recreate the iconic layers of creamy filling, rich chocolate, and crispy wafers right at home. This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of making this irresistible treat. In a large mixing bowl, pour in the whipping cream and powdered sugar. Whisk it together until stiff peaks form, creating a light and fluffy texture. Slowly fold in the condensed milk and vanilla extract, making sure not to overmix the cream.

This combination gives the filling its signature creamy and sweet taste, just like in Kinder Delight. Melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring frequently. Once melted, let it cool slightly before folding it gently into the cream mixture. This adds a smooth and rich layer to the filling. To assemble the wafer layers, lay one wafer sheet on a flat surface or baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Spread an even layer of the milk cream filling over the wafer using a spatula. Aim for about 1 cm thickness to mimic the original Kinder Delight’s creamy middle. Add another wafer sheet on top of the filling, pressing it down gently to make sure the layers stick together. Repeat this process to form a second or third layer, depending on how thick you want your homemade kinder delight to be.

Finish with a final wafer sheet on top. Melt the milk chocolate and dark chocolate (if using) in a double boiler or microwave. Stir the chocolate until it becomes silky smooth and lump-free. Pour the melted chocolate over the top of the wafer stack, spreading it evenly to cover the surface. Make sure the edges are well-coated to get that iconic chocolatey bite in every piece.

Let the chocolate layer set at room temperature or in the fridge for about 30 minutes, until it hardens. Once the chocolate has set, carefully slice your homemade kinder delight into rectangular bars using a sharp knife. For that perfect clean cut, you can warm the knife in hot water and dry it off before slicing. Serve the bars chilled or at room temperature, depending on your preference. This easy recipe is perfect for recreating the layers of crispy wafer, smooth milk cream, and rich chocolate at home. Whether you’re sharing them with friends or enjoying them yourself, these homemade treats are sure to bring back childhood memories.
