Toni the Tart's Chocolate Spring Rolls
"Toni is a caterer and baker in Johannesburg, and this recipe of hers is sinfully scrumptious. Most of you know how to fold and roll spring roll pastry, otherwise check out the directions on the packet. Instead of the chocolate and nuts, you can use banana and honey, or raspberries and white chocolate. Sorry, this is metric -- I give the weights in oz. as well but that's MY maths ... You serve these with a great ice cream. Prep and frying times are a guess."
