Ingredients:

         250 g unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing

         400 g chocolate

         100 g golden syrup

         250 g digestive biscuits

         200 g smarties (Red and Green to make it festive)

         1 large handful of marshmallows

         1 handful of chocolate biscuits

         icing sugar for dusting

FOR INGREDIENTS

Method:

1 - Grease and line a cake tin (roughly 20cm x 25cm). Half-fill a medium pan with boiling water and simmer over a low heat. Place a heatproof bowl over the pan of simmering water and melt the butter, chocolate and golden syrup together, stirring well

2 - Once the mixture is smooth, wrap the digestive biscuits in a clean tea towel and bash with a rolling pin into rough pieces, then add to the mixture. Add the rest of your fillings, and marshmallows.

3 - Mix everything together until well combined then pour the mixture into the lined tin. Push in a few chocolate biscuits. Pop in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or until set. Once firm, remove from the fridge, carefully remove from the tin and finish with a dusting of icing sugar. Cut into squares and give to friends and family if you can resist not eating them all yourself first.
