This recipe is delicious! I used digestive biscuits in the base and a mixture of milk and plain chocolate for the topping and it worked well. I also couldn't resist adding a sprinkling of pecan nuts (about 50g) and two small tubes of smarties over the top of the melted chocolate which I gently pressed in to the topping with a potato masher! It tasted incredible, this is definitely a recipe I will come back to again and again.

I lost my original tiffin recipe so searched for a similar one and found it in this one. Really quick and easy to make. I used a big bar of Galaxy chocolate for the topping (it was on offer at the Co-op) which worked really well. Thanks for sharing.

This was amazing, but what made it even better was double the amount of golden syrup and 6tsp cocoa. I used Ginger nuts instead of rich tea/digestives and threw in some fresh chopped ginger (about a thumb sized piece) I only used dark chocolate on the top. Made it at 7pm lastnight, by 7:30 it had gone. Ooops.

Fabulous recipe; made it for when some friends visited and they loved it. I am gluten intolerant, so actually used 150g gluten-free choc-chip cookies (that was all I had) and then about 200g GF rice crispies. Also used goats butter as I cannot tolerate cow dairy and used soya chocolate. My friends had no idea I had made these substitutions and thought it was really yummy. Thanks for sharing

These were so easy to make. Used digestive biscuits instead of rich tea. Only put 6 oz of biscuits in and topped it up with glace cherries and mini marshmallows.They were delicious.

Yum! I halfed this recipe and made 9; remember to cut the pieces smaller than you think - they're super rich! I used digestive biscuits instead of rich tea and added some dessicated coconut. Lovely!

Made this today and it turned out really well. I used dried cranberries instead of raisins and clover light instead of butter to cut down on calories!! This is a great recipe, quick and easy - fab!
