About the recipe

No-bake desserts are a thing of joy, and this chocolate fridge cake is all about minimal effort, maximum pleasure. It’s a great vehicle for using up store-cupboard staples – I’ve gone for dried fruit, nuts, gingernuts and marshmallows here; but swap in whatever makes you happy.

Top Tip

EASY SWAPS

Swap in your favourite store-cupboard ingredients – popcorn, stem ginger, desiccated coconut, or digestive biscuits all work a treat.

Method

  1. Snap the chocolate into a heatproof bowl. Roughly chop and add the butter with a small pinch of sea salt, drizzle in the golden syrup, then either melt over a pan of gently simmering water or for 30-second blasts in a microwave, stirring regularly.
  2. Snap or bash the biscuits into small chunks (putting a small handful of the finer bits aside for later) and roughly chop the peanuts, dried fruit and marshmallows, then tip into the melted chocolate mixture, stirring well to combine.
  3. Get yourself an appropriately sized container (I used a small loaf tin – 1 litre/1lb) that will act as a mould, and line it with a sheet of baking paper, leaving plenty of extra at the edges to fold over the top. Evenly spoon the mixture into the container, then place in the fridge for 4 hours to firm up.
  4. Once firm, use the baking paper to help you turn it out, then sprinkle over the reserved biscuit crumb and cut into chunky slices – this will keep for up to 5 days in an airtight container (if you can resist it for that long!).
