Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 60 ml golden syrup or light corn syrup
- 150 grams mini marshmallows
- 200 grams digestive biscuits or graham crackers (crushed)
- 100 grams chopped nuts (like almonds, hazelnuts, or walnuts)
- 50 grams optional toppings (e.g., shredded coconut, sprinkles)
Instructions
Line a 9-inch (23 cm) square baking tin with parchment paper and set aside.
In a heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate chips, unsalted butter, and golden syrup. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method), ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water.
Stir occasionally until the ingredients are melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly for 2–3 minutes.
Fold in the crushed digestive biscuits (or graham crackers), mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts. Stir until everything is evenly coated in the chocolate mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared tin and press down gently with the back of a spoon or spatula to ensure it's evenly distributed.
If using optional toppings like shredded coconut or sprinkles, sprinkle them over the top and gently press them into the surface.
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until it has fully set.
Remove from the refrigerator, lift the mixture out of the tin using the parchment paper, and cut it into 16 squares.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
