Tiffin is one of the best desserts ever! It's very easy to make and tastes delicious!
Even though I enjoy eating the tiffin you can buy in coffee shops, I find they are often stingy with the fruit, causing them to be less moist as well as being vastly over priced.
I have tried a few different recipes but ones which have the right amount of fruitiness often are more cakey, and lacking in the chocolaty texture being just right. So, I have made my own recipe which combines all the best parts from other recipes to make tiffin which I love!
Ingredients:
200g of broken digestives.
75g raisins.
75g glace cherries cut into quarters.
200g chocolate, milk or plain is best.
100g Margarine.
25g Sugar.
4 tablespoons of golden syrup.
Melting chocolate, syrup and margarine. |
- Crumble the digestives into a bowl, you want small pieces not crumbs! - I put mine into a bag and whack it with a rolling pin as I like being noisy and violent!
- Add the raisins, quartered cherries and sugar into a bowl.
- Melt the margarine, syrup and chocolate in a double boiler - pan of water with a heat proof bowl over the top works well. Make sure you stir frequently or it may burn.
- Tip the melted mixture into the bowl with the biscuit pieces, sugar and fruit and mix till everything is covered in chocolate goo!
- The line a tin or tray with an edge with foil.
- Tip the mixture into the tin and press down with the back of a spoon.
- Leave to cool on the side - cover with more foil or cling film if you want to, I don't as the heat makes weird water drips on the dessert.
- When cooled put into the fridge to set. This can take at least 2 hours.
- Using the foil to help, take the tiffin out of the tin.
- Put on to a cutting board and cut the tiffin in to equal pieces!
- Serve with a nice cup of tea or coffee! Unless you're like me and hate both then maybe a big glass of milk! YUM!
