Ingredients
 

  • 100 g 70% dark chocolate chopped into small pieces
  • 150 g milk chocolate chopped into small pieces
  • 200 g unsalted butter
  • 4 tbsp golden syrup
  • 200 g Rich Tea biscuits crushed
  • 100 g glacé cherries
  • 4 Crunchie bars broken into chunks

For the topping

  • 200 g milk chocolate chopped into small pieces
  • 2 Crunchie bars broken into chunks

Instructions
 

  • Line a 20cm square tin with non stick baking paper.
  • Add the dark and milk chocolate, butter and golden syrup to a heatproof bowl and set it over a pan of simmering water to melt it.
  • When it's melted add the crushed Rich Tea biscuits, glacé cherries and mix to coat in the melted chocolate.
  • Tip in the Crunchie bars and mix well to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to the tin. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to press the mixture down.
  • For the topping, add the milk chocolate to a heatproof bowl and set it over a pan of simmering water to melt it.
  • Pour the melted milk chocolate over the top of the Tiffin. Use an offset spatula or butter knife to smooth it over.
  • Finally, add the Crunchie decoration on top pressing lightly so that it sticks to the Tiffin.
  • For a smooth texture leave the Tiffin to set at room temperature, this usually takes an hour or two. When it's hard cut into squares using a sharp knife. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If using all dark chocolate add 100g caster sugar for added sweetness
  • The amount of butter can be cut down or it can be left out completely. Don't increase the amount of chocolate stated or the Tiffin won't set. 
  • The golden syrup can be left out.
  • Tiffin takes on a smoother texture if it's left to set at room temperature after which you'll need to store it in the fridge.
  • If it's a really hot day go ahead and put it straight into the fridge to set. It won't be quite as smooth but it will still be delicious.
  • Chocolate Tiffin can be eaten straight from the fridge but is most certainly better when eaten at room temperature. 
  • Storage: Tiffin will keep for 5-7 days in the fridge, however, it doesn't freeze well.
