|
Ingredients:
8oz unsalted butter2 tablespoons golden syrup 8oz quality plain chocolate (50-60% cocoa solids) 300g pack rich tea biscuits 2oz blanched hazelnuts, chopped, 2oz dried apricots, chopped 2oz dessicated coconut.
Directions:
Cut butter in cubes, break up chocolate, and place, together with the syrup in a heatproof glass bowl over a pan of not quite simmering water. Let it all melt together gently while you prepare the other ingredients. Crush the biscuits to crumbs. You can either do this in a food processor or by putting the biscuits in a polythene bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Either way, it speeds up the whole process if you roughly crumble them with your hands first. Now just stir all the ingredients together till well mixed. Pour into a 8" square cake tin, lined with clingfilm. Let it set in a cool place. (poster's comments - Cut into whatever size pieces you think best - the original recipe suggested 16, but it is very rich so I cut it into 32. Nice on a picnic or a buffet table or for tea, or small pieces would make good petit fours. ) | |
