- 2 tbsp icing sugar
Directions
Step 1
Line a 20 cm round or square cake tin with parchment paper for easy removal later.
Step 2
Break the digestive biscuits into small pieces by hand or using a rolling pin, ensuring there are both small crumbs and chunkier pieces.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter, golden syrup, dark chocolate, and milk chocolate together, stirring continuously until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Add the broken biscuits and dried cranberries to the chocolate mixture, folding everything together until the biscuits and cranberries are fully coated.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the prepared cake tin, pressing it down firmly with the back of a spoon to ensure it is tightly packed.
Step 7
Smooth the top and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until the cake is completely set.
Step 8
Once set, remove the cake from the tin using the parchment paper for leverage. Place it on a serving plate.
Step 9
Dust the top with icing sugar before serving.
