Ingredients
For the Base:
- 250g digestive biscuits OR tea biscuits (crushed)
(you can also use cornflakes or puffed rice instead of biscuits) - 1 cup roasted peanuts (or almonds, optional but recommended for crunch)
For the Chocolate Mixture:
- 200g milk chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 100g dark chocolate (optional, for deeper flavor)
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup condensed milk
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
For the Topping:
- 150–200g milk chocolate
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or buttons (for texture on top)
🥣 Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Base
- Crush the biscuits into small chunks (not powder—keep some texture).
- If using nuts, roughly chop them.
- Mix biscuits and nuts in a large bowl and set aside.
Step 2: Make Chocolate Mixture
- Take a saucepan and melt butter on low heat.
- Add condensed milk and stir gently.
- Add cocoa powder and mix well until smooth.
- Add chopped chocolate and stir until fully melted.
- Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
👉 The mixture should be smooth, glossy, and slightly thick.
Step 3: Combine Everything
- Pour the hot chocolate mixture over the biscuit mix.
- Stir well so everything is coated evenly.
Step 4: Set the Base
- Line a square or rectangular tray with butter paper.
- Pour the mixture into the tray.
- Press it down firmly using a spatula or spoon to make it compact and even.
Step 5: Add Chocolate Topping
- Melt the topping chocolate separately.
- Pour it evenly over the base.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips or buttons on top (like in your picture).
Step 6: Chill
- Refrigerate for 2–3 hours or until fully set.
Step 7: Cut & Serve
- Remove from tray.
- Cut into square bars like the image.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature.
💡 Tips for Best Results
- Use a mix of milk + dark chocolate for better taste.
- Don’t crush biscuits too fine—chunks give better texture.

- You can add raisins, coconut, or caramel for variation.
