Nutty Chocolate Crunch

Ingredients

  • 250g assorted biscuits, roughly chopped up
  • 250g assorted nuts or a mix of dried fruit
  • 300g milk or plain chocolate or a mixture of both, chopped up
  • 100g butter, chopped
  • 140g golden syrup

Method

Line and butter up a 20cm square tin with non-stick parchment. Using a large bowl, combine your biscuits and nuts, halving any large nuts. Melt your chocolate, butter and syrup in a bowl set over boiling water, stirring until smooth and glossy, then pour this over your biscuit/nut mixture.

Tip your mixture into the tin and flatten lightly, leaving it a little uneven and messy. Chill for 2 hours or leave overnight before cutting up.
