Grown-up rocky road

Makes 25 small squares

Prep 15 mins

Total time 20 mins, plus chilling

1. Grease and line a 20cm square tin with baking paper. Break up the spiced orange, dark and milk chocolates into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl with the butter and syrup. Sit the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and heat gently until melted. Remove from the heat and stir to combine.

2. Put the biscuits into a food bag, seal and break into pieces with a rolling pin. Roughly chop the pistachios. Add three quarters of the crushed biscuits, the pistachios, cherries, marshmallows, and all the ginger to the chocolate and mix well to coat.

3 Spoon into the prepared tin, scatter over the remaining biscuits, cherries, pistachios and marshmallows, and press. Chill for 1-2 hours, or until firm.

Lift out of the tin and cut in squares.
