crackle cakes

What to make for the kids' school Children's Day class party?  Flipped through this book (Cupcakes & Muffins by Nancy Lambert) that I bought back in 2009 when I first learned baking.  Hmmm... this looks cute... I halved the sugar amount and it turned out quite nice.  :-)   We may use cornflakes or crisped rice to make these little cakes crackle.
 
Ingredients
> 100g 50g sugar
> 100g butter
4 tbsp cocoa
2 tbsp golden syrup or honey
> 100g cornflakes
> coloured chocolate drops to decorate

Method
[1]  Put sugar, butter, cocoa and golden syrup or honey into a pan over low heat.
[2]  Stir until the ingredients have melted.
[3]  Remove pan from heat.
[4]  Stir cornflakes into the mixture until they are completely coated.
[5]  Spoon a little of the mixture into small paper cup cases.
[6]  Top each crackle cake with a coloured chocolate drop and leave them to set.
