Malteser Easter Bunny Tiffin

Ingredients

• 125g Butter
• 125g Golden Syrup
• 700g Chocolate - I used 500g of Milk and 200g of Dark, but you can use 700g of Milk if you prefer!
• 100g White Chocolate (Optional)
• 175g Digestive Biscuits
• 189g Maltesers (one large pouch)
• 12 Mini Malteser Bunnies (that's three packs with 3 bunnies spare for quality control purposes! :)

Method

1. Grease and line a 9"x9" baking tin.
2. Gently melt the butter and golden syrup in a saucepan on a low-medium heat. Take off the heat when the mixture is smooth and starts to bubble.
3. Break / cut in to small chunks 400g of chocolate (I used 200g of milk chocolate and 200g of dark chocolate) and add to the saucepan along with the melted butter and golden syrup. Set aside for a few minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
4. While waiting for the chocolate to melt, break the digestive biscuits and add them to a large mixing bowl along with the maltesers.
5. Stir the mixture in the saucepan until the chocolate is fully melted. Then pour your smooth mixture on top of the broken digestives and maltesers. Mix until fully combined.
6. Press the mixture down in to your lined baking tin.
7. Add the Topping: Melt the remaining 300g of chocolate (I used 300g of milk chocolate) and the 100g of white chocolate seperately. When both chocolates are fully melted pour on top of the tiffin (I added the milk chocolate first and then drizzle the white chocolate on top!). Finish by decorating with the malteser bunnies.
8. Leave to set at room temperature or in the fridge if you're impatient! Enjoy!

Notes

• - Store your tiffin in an airtight container at room temperature, where it will last for 2+ weeks!
• - If the chocolate isn't fully melted in to the butter and golden syrup mix after a couple of minutes add the saucepan back on to the heat for a few seconds - but be careful to not over-heat the chocolate!
• - I must admit that this recipe uses quite a lot of chocolate... the white chocolate is optional, and the chocolate in the topping can be reduced by 100g to 200g if you prefer!
• - I've used digestive biscuits (similar to graham crackers - for those of you who are unfamiliar), but shortbread, chocolate chip cookies, or any other biscuit/cookie can used as an alternative.
