Chocolate Biscuit Cake

This is a firm favourite of children and teenagers, often used for 18th birthday cakes. Obviously the quantities would need to be increased and set the cake in a round tin to decorate.

Ingredients

• 1 can condensed milk
• 50g (2oz) butter
• 175g(7oz) good quality milk chocolate
• 100g (4oz) rich tea or plain biscuits
• 1 cup of mini marshmallows
• 1 packet of maltesers
• 1 bar crunchie or snickers

Preparation

1. Break up the biscuits into 3cm pieces and add to a bowl along with marshmallows, broken crunchie and maltesers.
2. Place the butter and chocolate in a bowl over hot water in a saucepan to melt.
3. Quickly add the condensed milk and stir well into the dry ingredients. It doesn’t matter if they break up further at this stage.
4. Pour into a lined loaf tin and allow to set for 2 hours before slicing.
5. It could be decorated by pouring melted chocolate (partly cooled otherwise it would be too runny) over the cake. Then decorate as you wish.
