In an homage to my fellow MAD finalist Nick at My Daddy Cooks, Mini and I made a twist on his and Archies Tiffin
We followed Nick's basic recipe, but made a few tweaks as we went along.
125g butter
250g digestive biscuits
4 tbsp golden syrup
3 tbsp high quality cocoa powder
75g raisins
250g plain/dark chocolate
250g digestive biscuits
4 tbsp golden syrup
3 tbsp high quality cocoa powder
75g raisins
250g plain/dark chocolate
Instead of using the microwave we melted our butter, golden syrup and chocolate over the stove, for me I love the way it all melts together, so smooth and silk like.
We then added it to our biscuit mix and added in raisins and mini marshmallows.
What is truly great about this recipe is that mini did most of the work, but adding golden syrup, you make the chocolate more pliable and it takes longer to set. I always add golden syrup to the chocolate when making crispy cakes or our Jelly Baby Jesus Cakes
We placed the mix in to a silicon tray and pushed in some more marshmallows on top and I left it in the fridge for an hour or so, whilst mini set to on the spatula and bowl.
Once it was set, I cut it in to very small squares. We have been enjoying this as a treat once the boys are home from school with a nice cup of tea.
