Ingredients:
- Digestive biscuits or tea biscuits: 250g (about 2 cups), broken into small pieces
- Cocoa powder: 3 tablespoons
- Sweetened condensed milk: 1 cup (or substitute with regular milk + 3 tablespoons sugar)
- Butter: 2 tablespoons (optional, for richness)
- Dark or milk chocolate: 200g (melted, for coating)
- Chopped nuts: ½ cup (optional, for added crunch)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Base
- Break the biscuits into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
2. Make the Chocolate Mixture
- In a small saucepan, heat the condensed milk (or regular milk with sugar) and butter over low heat until smooth and slightly warm.
- Stir in the cocoa powder until fully combined, creating a glossy chocolate sauce.
3. Combine
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the crushed biscuits. Mix well until all the biscuit pieces are coated.
4. Shape the Mixture
- Transfer the mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Shape it into a log or press it into a rectangular container for easy slicing. Wrap it tightly and chill in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours until firm.
5. Coat with Chocolate
- Melt the dark or milk chocolate in a microwave or double boiler.
- Dip the chilled biscuit bars into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Sprinkle with chopped nuts for extra texture, if desired.
6. Set and Serve
- Place the coated bars on a tray lined with parchment paper and let the chocolate set in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Slice into individual pieces and enjoy!
Tips:
- No condensed milk? Use cream mixed with sugar or honey as a substitute.
- Add-ins: Mix in raisins, chopped dried fruit, or shredded coconut for extra flavor.
- Storage: Keep in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for a longer shelf life.
