Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate and Main Ingredients:
- 110g milk chocolate
- 110g dark chocolate
- 225g biscuits, crushed
- 150g butter, cubed, plus extra for the tin
- 6 teaspoons cocoa powder
Sweeteners:
- 3 tablespoons caster sugar
- 3 tablespoons golden syrup
Additional Ingredients:
- 1 handful raisins
Instructions
- Prepare a 15-20 cm baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring complete coverage of the base and sides.
- In a large saucepan, combine chocolate, butter, sugar, and water over low heat, stirring continuously until completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the chocolate mixture from heat and fold in raisins and broken cookies, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
- Transfer the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing down gently to create an even layer.
- For the topping, place milk and dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 15-20 second intervals and stirring between each session.
- Continue microwaving and stirring the chocolate until it reaches a completely smooth, glossy consistency with no lumps.
- Pour the melted chocolate topping evenly over the cookie base, using a spatula to spread it to the edges.
- Refrigerate the tiffin for a minimum of 2 hours or preferably overnight until the chocolate sets completely firm.
- Once fully chilled and hardened, remove from the refrigerator and slice into neat squares using a sharp knife.
Notes
- Choose a non-stick baking dish to prevent sticking and make removal easier.
- Crush cookies into varied sizes for interesting texture and more crumbly mouthfeel.
- Swap traditional cookies with gluten-free alternatives for a celiac-friendly version.
- Experiment with different chocolate types like white or ruby chocolate for unique flavor profiles.
