🍫 Mary Berry Tiffin Ingredients

150g butter, cubed, plus extra for the tin

🎂 Instructions For Mary Berry Tiffin

First, grease and line a 15- to 20-cm baking dish with baking paper.
Melt the chocolate, butter, sugar, and water in a large pot.
Once they’re melted, add the raisins and broken cookies.
Put this mixture in your tin. Put the milk chocolate and dark chocolate in a bowl for the chocolate topping.
Put the chocolate in the microwave for 20 seconds and then stir it.
Put the chocolate back in the microwave and stir it again and again until it is smooth and melted.
Put this on top of the cookie mix.
Put the tin in the fridge for at least two hours or overnight. Cut it into squares with a knife once it’s hard.

💭 Recipe Tips

Use room-temperature butter for easy blending; cold butter can make the mixture lumpy.
Ensure the biscuit crumbs aren’t too fine; a slightly coarse texture adds crunch to the Tiffin.
Adjust sweetness by varying the chocolate types—milk for a sweeter flavor, dark for a richer flavor.
Avoid overmixing; excessive stirring can make the tiffin too dense or difficult to set properly.
Chill the Tiffin adequately; insufficient time in the fridge can result in a softer, less cohesive texture.
