One of the little things in life, or Life’s Little Things, that brings me a lot of happiness is chocolate!!! I love chocolate. Easter isn’t far away so there is going to be chocolate everywhere. I decided for this blog post to share with you, one of my favourite chocolatey dessert recipes but with an Easter twist! So Life’s Little Things brings you easy, no bake, Cadbury Mini Egg, Easter Chocolate Tiffin!
Tiffin is one of the richest, chocolatiest things I have even eaten. It is soooooooo delicious but it is very highly calorific, so please eat responsibly!!! It is super easy to make and is a great one to get the kids involved in (but not with the hot parts!).
What you will need to make Easter Chocolate Tiffin:
225g Rich Tea Biscuits or Plain Digestive Biscuits
400g Chocolate (I used milk chocolate, but you could use dark chocolate if you prefer.)
3 tbsp Golden Syrup
2 tbsp Coco Powder
55g Raisins
160g Cadbury Mini Eggs
115g Butter
A little extra butter to grease the tin
Equipment
Baking Tin
3 Bowls
A Saucepan
Rolling Pin
Spoon
Step 1
Grease the baking tin with some butter. Then in a bowl, crush the biscuits into small pieces. You don’t want them to be crumbs, just small pieces. In a separate bowl crush up the mini eggs into smaller chunks.
Step 2
In a saucepan, over a medium heat, gently melt the butter and golden syrup together and then mix in the coco powder. Once completely melted, pour the mixture into the broken pieces of biscuits. Add in the raisins and about half of the crushed mini eggs and continue to mix. Make sure it is well mixed together, then put the mixture into the baking tin and press down firmly.
Step 3
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water. Once melted, pour the chocolate over the biscuit mixture in the baking tin and evenly spread over the top. Then sprinkle on the remaining Cadbury mini eggs. Once finished, pop it into the fridge for about 4 hours.
Step 4
Once fully chilled, cut into squares. Then enjoy!
I absolutely love Tiffin, and so do the rest of the family. So needless to say that a batch of it doesn’t last long in our house! I hope you enjoy the recipe. Wherever you are and whatever you are doing, I hope you all have a happy and safe Easter. See you in 2 weeks! For more regular posts, follow me on Facebook, Instagram and now on Pinterest!
