Mincemeat Tiffin
Mincemeat tiffin is a twist on my quick classic chocolate tiffin. You need five everyday ingredients along with a jar of mincemeat to make this Christmas treat (that we enjoy all year round). No bake mincemeat chocolate fridge cake is perfect for all your Christmas parties, bake sales and seasonal entertaining.
Servings: 16

- 125 g chocolate, broken into pieces
- 25 g golden syrup
- 15 g cocoa
- 150 g digestive biscuits
Instructions

- Crush the biscuits so that you have a mix of fine crumb and some small chunks.150 g digestive biscuits
- Combine the chocolate mixture with the biscuits, stirring well for an even consistency.
- Transfer the mixture to a tin lined with baking paper, spreading it out evenly. Allow to cool and transfer to the fridge to firm up for about 4 hours or over night.
- Remove from the tray and cut into 16 slices to serve.
Notes
Storage
Keeps in an airtight tin for up to a week. In warm weather, store in a sealed container in the fridge to avoid the tiffin melting into a chocolatey mess. Let your mincemeat tiffin come up to room temperature before serving.Hints and tips
- Try to keep some texture in the digestives. I like a mix of a fine crumb with some chunks.
- Press the mixture down well, taking care with the corners and edge of the tin.
- Allow the mincemeat tiffin to firm up before slicing. This will take longer than some other tiffin recipes, as the mincemeat is very moist. Use a sharp, heavy knife so you get a clean cut.
- If using golden syrup from a tin, warm the spoon by dipping it in a mug of just boiled water for a few seconds. Dry it and use the hot spoon to scoop the syrup. It will just slide off.
