A delicious no-bake treat

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/tasty-chocolate-tiffin • Posted by Libby W.

I made this for a work bake sale. They had sold out by lunchtime, so I consider that a win! The recipe is a combination of this one: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/7451/chocolate-tiffin.aspx and how my boyfriend remembers his father making tiffin when he was a child. I bought all my ingredients from aldi and made 12-15 squares for £5.

You will need

5 tsp Cocoa Powder 200 g Rich tea Biscuit(s) 200 g Mixed Dried Fruit I used cranberries and raisins Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk 300 g Bar of Milk Chocolate 300 g Bar Dark Chocolate A small handful White Chocolate Chips (Optional) Small handful of White Chocolate Buttons Rectangular Dish Mixing Bowl Clingfilm

I made this for a work bake sale. They had sold out by lunchtime, so I consider that a win! The recipe is a combination of this one: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/7451/chocolate-tiffin.aspx and how my boyfriend remembers his father making tiffin when he was a child. I bought all my ingredients from aldi and made 12-15 squares for £5.

Instructions

1. 

   Gather your ingredients. I didn't end up using the butter or the sugar in this picture.

2. Line your dish with Clingfilm, this will make your tiffin easier to get out later. You could also use baking paper or a silicon tray.

3. 

   Put your biscuits in a sandwich bag and crush them. Wacking them off the worksurface is a great way of getting rid of frustration!

4. Add your crushed biscuits, cocoa powder and the dried fruit to a mixing bowl and stir until everything is covered with the cocoa powder.

5. Add the condensed milk and mix. You want the mixture to stick together but not be too wet. You may not need it all, I had a small amount left in the bottom of the can.

6. Put the mixture in the dish and press down until it is even, flat and in all the corners.

7. Chill in the fridge for 30mins.

8. Melt the milk and dark chocolate. I used a measuring jug, blasted in the microwave for 30 second internals, stirring in between. You could also use a bowl over a pan of water.

9. Pour the chocolate over your biscuit mixture, and spread it so it is even and flat. Decorate with the white chocolate buttons and chips. I tried to estimate how I would cut it up, and placed the buttons so there would be one per piece.

10. Chill in the fridge for a few hours ( I left mine over night). Then pop it out of the dish and cut into portions. Enjoy! Let me know below if you try it out!
