Several people asked me for this recipe yesterday, so, as I promised, here it is. It is not my original, but came from a friend, Trissa, many years ago. I have not made it for a long time and I had forgotten just how sticky and rich it is. My tastes and appetites have changed in those years, and I cannot eat the size of portions I would have done. A very small piece is enough to satisfy my desires.
Ingredients:
8oz digestive biscuits
4oz margarine
2 tablespoons soft brown sugar
2 tablespoons golden syrup
½ cup cocoa powder
3-4oz sultanas
3-4oz chocolate to cover
Method: Melt the sugar, Margarine and syrup together in a saucepan. Then add cocoa, then sultanas and crushed biscuits. Mix thoroughly, then tip into a 7 inch square baking tin (I usually line the tin with baking parchment). cover with the melted chocolate (I melt that in a jug in the microwave), and put it all in the fridge until set. Cut into small pieces and store in the fridge.
Hope you all enjoy this one. Me, I'm off now to start the bread off, and to make some cheese scones. Then it is back to the Christmas cards - time to finish them and get them in the post.

Welcome to my blog
I hope you enjoy reading my posts, and please leave me a comment. I always enjoy reading them, and will try to visit you in return.
For security reasons for me and for you, I would appreciate it if you would leave your name on your comments.
You are welcome to copy any of my designs, as long as you do not take credit for them yourself. I am very happy for you to sell them. If I have used anyone else's design, I always try to give credit where it is due. If I have missed anything, please let me know and I will put things right.
This is intended to be mainly about my crafting stories, as a personal record of what I do. However, I interpret crafting quite widely, not just paper crafting but other things too. I have a butterfly mind and like to change from one thing to another depending on what I feel like on a given day - knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, cards, baking and several others, including my favourite right now, parchment, both traditional skills and Groovi, very relaxing and calming to do.

I have decided to put some structure into my blog so that each day will have something of a theme.
Monday- for Mindfulness; Tuesday - Tidy Up Day; Wednesday - What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday; Thursday - Technique and Tips; Friday - Finish Off Day; Saturday - Start Something New; Sunday - Anything Goes
These themes are not hard and fast and will be changed if I feel the need.
