1 square cake tin, greased
2 100g bars of good chocolate
1 tablespoon of margarine
1 tablespoon of golden syrup
1 200g pack of bourbon biscuits (other biscuits will do), bashed up
and here’s the Christmassy part… a crumbled slice of Christmas cake including bits of marzipan and icing
a handful of raisins
Method:
Melt 1 bar of chocolate in a Bain Marie (bowl over pan of hot water) along with the marg and syrup. Once nice and smooth, stir in your other ingredients and press mixture into tin. Melt the other bar and spread on top. We topped with sugar stars… chill in fridge until set and cut into squares.
It’s gorgeous… quite different with the Christmas cake but very, very good and dangerously moreish 🙂
How do you even have leftover christmas cake?!
looks delicious…bet it would be lush made with gingerbread…
I made two 🙂 and it wasn’t so much leftover as just so crumbly I scraped it’s scatterings into the chocolate mix 🙂 yes, gingerbread would be good…
Oh, no!!! I was planning to make a Christmas cake but didn’t… If I had, I could have made this! It looks SO good!
you can make it without the cake, it’s just as good!! 😀
I do enjoy these recipes. I like the idea of gingerbread too.
Glad you like 🙂
Annoyingly, I threw out the last of my ginger cake just last night! It’s bedn sitting in a tin for weeks and I thought. I’ll give that to the birds! Now I know what I can do with it in future.
