Hello everyone! Sorry I’ve been MIA for a bit, I’ve had a lot of holiday related and coursework related stuff going on, but I assure you I am now back and will continue to do videos and recipes for you to try out
So without further ado:
VIDEO UNDER THE READ MORE…
SERVES 8
You will need:
a greased cake tin
a greased baking tray
100g margarine or butter
190g plain chocolate
2 tbsp golden syrup
230g ginger biscuits, crushed (I use a rolling pin and clingfilm in the video, but you can use a food processor)
100g hazelnuts
1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (160 for fan ovens)/ gas mark 4. Spread the hazelnuts out over the baking tray, and place them in the oven for 10 minutes, or until the skins have started to crack. Remove them, and rub them lightly with a paper towel to remove the skin, as this tastes very bitter. Then chop the hazelnuts using a knife or blender.
2. Meanwhile, heat the butter, chocolate and syrup together in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of hot water. Stir until melted.
3. Remove the mixture from the heat, and stir in the ginger biscuits and three quarters of the hazelnuts, then push the mixture down into the tin, until it is lying flat and evenly. Sprinkle the rest of the nuts over the top and chill for an hour and a half before serving.
