Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 6 Mars Bars
  • 200g digestive biscuits
  • 100g Rice Krispies
  • 300g milk chocolate

Binding Ingredients:

  • 150g (5.3 ounces) unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup

Finishing Ingredients:

  • None

Instructions

  1. Gently melt butter and golden syrup in a saucepan over low heat until completely combined and smooth.
  2. Remove from heat and incorporate crushed biscuits and Rice Krispies, stirring until evenly coated with the buttery mixture.
  3. Chop Mars Bars into small pieces and delicately fold them into the biscuit mixture, ensuring even distribution.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined rectangular baking tin, using the back of a spoon to press and compact the mixture firmly and evenly.
  5. Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water or using short microwave bursts, stirring until glossy and smooth.
  6. Pour the melted chocolate over the compressed base, tilting the tin to create an even layer that covers the entire surface.
  7. Refrigerate for approximately 2 hours or until the chocolate topping has fully set and hardened.
  8. Remove from the refrigerator, lift out using the parchment paper, and slice into neat squares or rectangles.
  9. Serve chilled and enjoy the rich, decadent treat.

Notes

  • Gentle melting prevents burning the butter and syrup, ensuring a smooth base for the cake.
  • Use a low heat setting and stir continuously to maintain an even temperature and prevent scorching.
  • Chop Mars Bars into small, uniform pieces for consistent chocolate distribution throughout the mixture.
  • Line the tin with parchment paper for easy removal and clean slicing of the cake.
