Conor’s mother’s chocolate biscuit cake (with hazelnuts)



Conor’s mother’s chocolate biscuit cake (with hazelnuts)

Recently Conor’s mother made some chocolate biscuit cake for his brother’s birthday. She passed on the recipe to me and, as our oven in our new place doesn’t really work, we decided to remake it as we were having a dinner.
It is super simple and so so rich!



Ingredients
-2.5 bars of dark chocolate
-100g dairy free butter
-1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
-1/4 pack digestive biscuits
-1/4 pack oat biscuits
-1/3 cup raisins
-3 tablespoons golden syrup

1. Chop up 2 bars of chocolate into bits and put with butter in a bowl in the microwave until melted.
2. Crunch biscuits into bits (but not crumbs) and put in a bowl with raisins, golden syrup, hazelnuts. Add melted chocolate/butter.
3. Put in a cake tin or other container. Put in freezer (if you want it quicker) or in fridge until it cools.
4. Once chocolate cake is cooled, melt the other ½ bar chocolate in the microwave and cover top of cake to smooth it. Eat! : )
