Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Dark chocolate — Use high-quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa solids for the best flavor and texture.
  • Mixed nuts — Feel free to customize the nut combination according to your preference. Toasting the nuts before chopping them will enhance their flavor.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a more intense chocolate flavor, add a tablespoon of Dutch cocoa powder to the melted chocolate and butter mixture.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, you can pulse the crushed biscuits in a food processor to achieve a finer consistency.
  • Decorate the top of the cake with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a drizzle of melted chocolate for an elegant touch.
