As Christmas approaches, if you’re searching for a festive dessert, consider this chocolate tiffin recipe. It’s incredibly easy, doesn’t need any baking, and provides a delightful chocolate treat to celebrate the holiday season.  
Ingredients  
8oz digestive biscuits  
3oz butter  
3oz brown sugar  
3 tablespoons cocoa powder  
1oz raisins  
1oz dried cranberries  
1 beaten egg  
2oz dark chocolate  
2oz white chocolate  

Method  
Grease and line a 15-20cm rectangular tin with baking parchment.  
Place the biscuits in a food processor and pulse until they are in small pieces (if you don’t have a food processor, you can crush them in a bowl using a heavy object such as a rolling pin). Transfer the crushed biscuits to a large bowl and set aside.  
In a saucepan, melt the butter, sugar, and cocoa powder together, stirring until smooth.  
Add the raisins and dried cranberries, then remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.  
Mix in the beaten egg until fully incorporated.  
Pour this mixture over the crushed biscuits, stirring until all the biscuits are coated.  
Transfer the mixture to the prepared tin, pressing it down, then smooth the top using the back of a metal spoon.  
Melt the dark and white chocolate separately in the microwave, doing so in 20-second intervals and stirring in between to prevent burning.  
Drizzle the dark chocolate in stripes across the top of the mixture in the tin, leaving spaces in between.  
Fill the gaps with stripes of white chocolate.  
Use a toothpick to swirl the chocolate together for a marbled effect.  
Refrigerate the tin for about two hours or overnight to set.  
Once set, turn the mixture onto a chopping board and cut into squares.

As Christmas approaches, if you’re searching for a festive dessert, consider this chocolate tiffin recipe. It’s incredibly easy, doesn’t need any baking, and provides a delightful chocolate treat to celebrate the holiday season.  
Ingredients  
8oz digestive biscuits

Mix in the beaten egg until fully incorporated.
