No Bake Chocolate Tiffin Cake My Daddy Cooks Recipes

CHOCOLATE TIFFIN

Steps:

• Grease the tin with a little butter OR line the base with baking parchment or a liner
• Halve or quarter the cherries - no need to wash
• Crush the biscuits: Put them in a large bag and beat with a rolling pin until the biscuits are in small pieces. (Some biscuit will be powdered and some will be in larger pieces)
• In a large saucepan, melt the butter, sugar, and golden syrup and mix to combine
• Turn off the heat, add the crushed biscuits and cocoa and mix thoroughly, ensuring the chocolate colour is evenly distributed. Add the fruit and mix carefully
• Press the mixture into the tin with the back of a spoon. Push it down firmly. Turn the spoon over and use the edge to tidy up the edges of the tiffin
• Leave to cool.
• When the base has cooled, tip the tiffin out of the tin and remove the liner
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave or over a saucepan of hot waterFor step-by-step instructions see How to Melt Chocolate
• Pour the melted chocolate over the base and spread evenly using a knife
• Leave to cool, then cut into squares.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE TIFFIN CAKE - MY DADDY COOKS RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour the golden syrup into a non-metallic bowl with the butter and melt in the microwave on full power for about 1.5-2 minutes (you can also do this in a pan on the hob)
• While the butter and syrup are melting, put the biscuits in a plastic bag, seal it and bash them up
• Add the cocoa, the raisins and then the biscuit to the melted butter and golden syrup
• Pour the mix into a tin and spread it evenly, flattening it down as you go
• You don't want them to crumble to a powder, the chunky bits are the best bits in the tiffin
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave for 2-3 minutes (it will depend on the power of your microwave) or melt it in a bowl sitting on (but not touching) a saucepan of barely simmering water
• Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the biscuit base and then simply put the dish in the fridge
• The cake will be set and ready to eat within 1 hour
• It keeps for several days in the fridge in an airtight container, but will likely be eaten well before
