Easy Chocolate Tiffin

I usually make Chocolate Tiffin whenever I need an easy, no-bake dessert. I also have this classic English treat as a snack or breakfast with a cup of milk.

I LOVE that this Tiffin recipe is sooo easy to make.

Chocolate Tiffin

Experience is not required to make this homemade Tiffin; all you really need is a few ingredients and 10 minutes to put this dessert together.

This chocolate Tiffin is a refrigerator cake which means that you don’t have to bake it and it is also freezer friendly.

This recipe is kid-friendly. The main ingredients of this recipe are chocolate and biscuits, which are a sure hit for kids. I also like to make this dessert with my kids as a bonding activity.

You'll Need

Complete information on ingredients and quantities is in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Biscuits: I use Digestive biscuits. You can make this recipe gluten-free by using a gluten-free biscuit.

Butter: It add richness to the recipe.

Light brown sugar: It adds a more subtle sweetness and moisture to desserts.

Golden syrup: This is a popular sweetener used in the United Kingdom. It is also called Treacle and looks like honey.

Cocoa Powder: I use it to add a rich and deep flavor to this dessert.

Raisins: Raisins have that sweet taste, which I like, and they go so well with biscuits and chocolate.

Chocolate, for the topping: I add a melted milk chocolate layer on the top.

How to Make Chocolate Tiffin - Step by Step

Preparation: Before you start, make sure to line a 20x20 cm baking pan with parchment paper.

One: Put the biscuits in a Ziplock bag and beat with a rolling pin until crushed. You can also put them in a food processor so you can crush them easily.

Two: In a large saucepan, add butter, sugar, and golden syrup over medium heat and mix until the butter is melted.

Tip: Make sure to melt the butter on medium heat to avoid burning it.

Three: Turn off the heat, add the crushed biscuits, raisins, and cocoa and stir until incorporated well.

Four: Press the mixture into the pan. Make sure that there are no bubbles in the mixture. You can put a towel underneath the pan and give it a few good whacks on a counter to remove air packets.

Tip: When pouring the mixture onto your pan, use a spatula and press the mixture well to make an even layer.

Five: Put the mixture in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.

Make The Topping

Seven: Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and put it inside your microwave.

Eight: Heat the chocolate in 30-second intervals. Take the chocolate out and mix it. Reheat until all chocolate chunks are melted. The consistency of the chocolate must look like a ganache (creamy) and it should be looking glossy.

Tip: You can use a double broiler to melt the chocolate.

Nine: Take out the mixture from the freezer and pour your melted chocolate mixture on top. Put the chocolate and tiffin mixture back into the fridge until it becomes firm (at least 2 hours). Cut into squares for serving.

How To Cut The Tiffin?

Take the Chocolate Tiffin out of the fridge before serving it, and let it cool for a bit. Once you’re ready to serve it, heat your knife by running it through hot water.

This will make it easy to cut the Chocolate Tiffin and avoid any chocolate sticking to your knife.

Tips

• Tiffin is best stored in the fridge to prevent the chocolate from melting. They will last for 5-6 days.
• You can also freeze this dessert. Make sure to wrap it well before storing it in the fridge. They will last for 1-2 months.
