Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams dark chocolate
- 150 grams unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons golden syrup
- 250 grams digestive biscuits
- 100 grams raisins
- 50 grams chopped nuts (optional)
- 50 grams white chocolate (optional, for decoration)
Instructions
Line a square or rectangular baking tin (approximately 8 inches/20 cm) with parchment paper for easy removal later.
Place the digestive biscuits in a large bowl and break them into small chunks using your hands or the back of a spoon. Avoid crushing them too finely; you need some texture.
In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (or using a microwave in short bursts), melt the dark chocolate, butter, and golden syrup together. Stir occasionally until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Remove the melted chocolate mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly for a minute or two.
Stir in the broken biscuits, raisins, and chopped nuts (if using). Mix until all the dry ingredients are well coated in the chocolate mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and press it down firmly with the back of a spoon to create an even surface.
If using white chocolate for decoration, melt it in the same way as the dark chocolate and drizzle it over the top of the fridge cake for a decorative touch.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours or until fully set. For best results, leave it overnight.
Once set, remove the cake from the tin and cut it into squares or rectangles. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
