Instructions
- Prepare a lined Swiss roll pan for the no-bake dessert.

- Once fully chilled, slice into squares and serve at room temperature for optimal flavor and texture.
Notes
- Customize texture by gently crushing Maltesers for a more intense malt flavor and varied crunch.
- Control sweetness by choosing dark or milk chocolate depending on personal preference and desired richness.
- Create gluten-free version by substituting regular cookies with gluten-free alternatives like almond or oat-based biscuits.
- Enhance presentation by adding extra Maltesers on top or sprinkling crushed malt balls for a decorative and textural finish.
