Chunky no-bake chocolate slabs packed with crushed biscuits, marshmallows and dried fruit. A lunchbox and bake-sale hero.
← Nouns Cooking · Dessert Parlour
Ingredients
- 200 g dark chocolate (or half milk chocolate), chopped
- 135 g Butter
- 3 tbsp Golden syrup
- 200 g Digestive biscuits (or graham crackers), broken into small chunks
- 100 g mini marshmallows
- 75 g dried cranberries, raisins or glacé cherries
- 50 g roasted peanuts or other nuts (optional)
- 1 tbsp icing sugar, to dust
Method
- Line an 18–20 cm square tin with baking paper.
- Melt the chocolate, butter and golden syrup together in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water, or gently in a pan, stirring until smooth. Let it cool for 5 min so it does not melt the marshmallows.
- Put the biscuit chunks, marshmallows, dried fruit and nuts in a big bowl, pour over the chocolate and stir until everything is coated.
- Tip into the tin and press down roughly; the top should stay knobbly.
- Chill for at least 2 hours, until firm. Dust with icing sugar and cut into chunky squares.
Tips
- Marshmallows usually contain gelatine; use vegetarian marshmallows to make it meat-free.
- Contains wheat (biscuits) and often nuts; check labels for allergens.
