Hello @simplysharon1215  Welcome to the "New" KING Community

Luckily, I passed this level in my first trial (not so long ago)!  Yes! this level has 12 moves & is possible to beat with the help of some starting boosters.  Few tips from a fellow player   
1)  Before trying this level next time, win Tiffi's challenge -- "Season's Stockings" is the current title.  These multiple boosters help us with clearing the Chocolate from the board;
2)  Try to Mix & Match 2 Color Bombs --- this will clear the board just in a single move
3)  When the stars are clear the "Star", the Party Booster will clear the whole board -- that will come in handy too
4)  When you are very closer to your goal, use your "Free Switch" & "Lollipop Hammer" ONLY if needed;
So, with these tips, even with JUST 12 moves, you can beat the level (I just tried now as I forgot how the level was )

All the Best & Have a nice day/evening!

This is still showing only 12 moves...virtually impossible

Hi @simplysharon1215 and @Jamiebk, and thanks @Pummy_Raj for your great response!

You can read what Queen Mia wrote about this here:  https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/discussion/231036/level-changing-on-candy-crush-not-getting-the-same-amount-of-moves-as-your-friends-or-as-on-videos/p1

If you see videos online showing more moves, this is the reason.  The videos are outdated because the video creators make them when the levels are first released.  The studio monitors all levels when they are released and they check to see how many players clear a specific level and how long it takes for them to clear it.  If it's too easy or too difficult they will "tweak" the levels a bit.  The video creators can't keep up with the studio changes so you are still only seeing the first video release.
