• 150g (5oz) good-quality plain chocolate, chopped
• 150g (5oz) butter
• 2 large tbsp golden syrup
• 225g (8oz) semi-sweet biscuits, such as digestives, crushed (in a bowl with your hands or in a plastic bag with a rolling pin)
• 25g (1oz) hazelnuts or almonds, toasted and chopped (optional)

Melt the chocolate with the butter and golden syrup in a large bowl sitting over a saucepan of simmering water on a low heat.

Stir in the crushed biscuits and nuts (if using) until well blended.

Spread into a 23cm (9in) diameter round cake tin or a 20cm (8in) square tin, lined with greaseproof or parchment paper.

Refrigerate for a couple of hours until well set, or pop into the freezer for 45 minutes. Cut into 16 pieces.
