Here is how my chocolate and gingertiffin turned out. One of my favourite chefs, Levi Roots describes this sweet treat as "A superior chocolate biscuit cake, ginger, nuts, sultanas, chocolate - how can we go wrong
For my second chocolate recipe, I chose to make tiffins. I love chocolate on its own, it’s such a good feeling to bite into a bar of chocolate but things made with chocolate, especially cakes, make me feel a bit sick
I've used ginger biscuits in this recipe and it gives the tiffin a lovely warmth that you just wouldn't get from plain biscuits but it also acts to cut the sweetness of the white chocolate too
I made ginger and chocolate squares before which were lovely and on the same lines to have a festive feel without the dead flies, not my use of words there
I used nuts for the crunch instead- almonds and hazelnuts (which are my favourites at the moment), but if nuts are a problem, you could switch them for the more traditional digestive biscuits or even ginger nuts
