This is a cake that my gran use to make for Christmas. Sadly she is no longer with us, but we now make it ourselves; even my brother makes this at Christmas. It is not very healthy but it's Christmas anyway.

2 eggs

225g (8 oz) margarine

2 level desertspoons of sugar

110g (4 oz) plain chocolate

110g (4 oz) milk chocolate

225g (8 oz) shortbread biscuits, broken into small pieces

1 tablespoon chopped glace cherries (optional)

1 tablespoon chopped nuts (optional)

2 drop vanilla extract (optional)

Preparation method

1. Beat eggs in a mixing bowl. Add melted margarine and sugar and mix to combine.

2. Melt chocolate in saucepan and stir to prevent burning. Once melted, add little at a time to the eggs, beating well. When the chocolate has been combined, fold in the biscuits, cherries, nuts and vanilla.

3. Line a large cake tin with greaseproof paper and pour the cake mixture in. Leave to cool for 24 hours. Slice into squares and store in fridge.
