Chocolate Biscuit (Biskat) Recipe😋
Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for Chocolate Biscuit (Biskat). This treat is perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings, and it’s easy to make with just a few ingredients!
Ingredients:
- 200g (about 1 ½ cups) plain or digestive biscuits (or any biscuit of your choice)
- 100g (½ cup) unsalted butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar (or to taste)
- 2–3 tablespoons cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons milk (you can adjust the quantity)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Optional: 1/4 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, cashews) or chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Prepare the Biscuits:
- Crush the biscuits into small pieces. You can either break them by hand or pulse them in a food processor. You want a mix of larger chunks and fine crumbs for texture.
- Make the Chocolate Mixture:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Once melted, add the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine, and cook for a minute or two until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Combine the Biscuits and Chocolate Mixture:
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the crushed biscuits to the chocolate mixture. Stir gently to coat the biscuits in the chocolate sauce, making sure everything is evenly mixed. If you’re adding nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in now.
- Shape and Set:
- Line a small rectangular or square baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Transfer the biscuit-chocolate mixture into the dish, pressing it down with the back of a spoon to flatten it into an even layer. Make sure it’s packed tightly.
- Chill:
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2–3 hours, or until it firms up and becomes solid. For best results, leave it in the fridge overnight.
- Cut and Serve:
- Once set, remove from the fridge and cut into squares or bars.
Tips:
- Add-ins: You can add dried fruit like raisins, sultanas, or cranberries for extra flavor.
- Coconut Coating: Roll the biscuits in desiccated coconut before serving for an extra touch of flavor and texture.
- For a Crunchy Texture: Use crunchy biscuits like Marie biscuits or any other crunchy cookies.
These no-bake chocolate biscuits are a hit at parties, as an afternoon snack with tea or coffee, or just as a sweet indulgence when you’re craving chocolate! Enjoy!
