Chocolate Biscuit Cake Recipe

Step 1: Prepare Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients: 250g digestive biscuits, 150g dark chocolate, 150g milk chocolate, 100g unsalted butter, 3 tbsp golden syrup, and optional extras like nuts or dried fruits.

Step 2: Crush Biscuits

Place the digestive biscuits in a large bowl and crush them into small pieces. You can use a rolling pin or your hands to do this.

Step 3: Melt Chocolate Mixture

In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate, milk chocolate, unsalted butter, and golden syrup. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, ensuring that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir until everything is melted and smooth.

Step 4: Combine Biscuits and Chocolate Mixture

Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the crushed biscuits. Mix well to ensure that all the biscuit pieces are coated with the chocolate mixture. If using, add the nuts or dried fruits and mix them in.

Step 5: Transfer to Tin

Line a square or rectangular baking tin with parchment paper. Pour the biscuit and chocolate mixture into the tin and spread it out evenly, pressing down firmly.

Step 6: Chill

Place the tin in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the cake is set.

Step 7: Serve

Once set, remove the cake from the tin and cut into squares or bars. Serve and enjoy!
