Chocolate Fridge Cake
- 5 1/4 ounces (150 grams) digestive biscuits
- 3 1/2 ounces (100 grams) pecans
- 3 1/2 ounces (100 grams) pistachio nuts
- 10 glace cherries
- 2 ready made meringue nests, crumbled into small pieces
- 5 1/4 ounces (150 grams) butter
- 1 tablespoon golden syrup
- 7 ounces (200 grams) good quality chocolate
- Cocoa powder, for dusting
- Break the biscuits into small pieces directly into a large bowl.
- Add the pecans, pistachio nuts, cherries and bits of meringue.
- Put the rest of the ingredients, except the cocoa powder, into a bowl and put over a pan of simmering water on low heat to melt.
- Mix the ingredients together and place in the container which acts as your mold.
- To help with turning out, line a 12 by 8-inch (30 by 20 centimeter) container with cling film, first leaving plenty of extra film at the edges to fold over the top.
- Leave in the refrigerator to firm up then turn out and cut into chunky slices.
- This cake can be kept in an airtight container and actually improves after a couple of days.
