  1. Line a square 20x20cm tin with greaseproof paper.
  2. In a medium pan placed over a gentle heat, melt together the butter, chocolate and syrup. Stir the mixture continuously as it begins to melt, once it is smooth and everything combined, remove from the heat and place to one side. method tip
  3. Using a sharp knife, roughly cut the honeycomb balls and digestive biscuits so you have nice chunky pieces. Add these to the cooled chocolate mixture and stir to incorporate. Pour into your lined square tin, press down with a metal spoon so you have a smooth, even surface and place in the fridge to chill until set.
  4. To decorate, melt the milk and white chocolate separately. Spread a layer of melted milk chocolate over the surface of the chilled fridge cake – this will act like a glue! Then sprinkle over the top of the melted milk chocolate your chopped honeycomb balls and digestives. Using either a teaspoon or paper cornet made from greaseproof paper, drizzle over the top of the cake with alternate lines of melted white and milk chocolate. Using a sharp knife, cut into squares and serve. method tip

"My friend introduced me to this recipe - all I can say is WOW. The Maltesers made the chocolate biscuit cake a lot lighter than many other recipes. Guess what I am going to be making tomorrow."

"Absolute doddle to make and very tasty. There seemed to be a creamyness to it that I guess came from the milk chocolate. Two things though, 50g of milk choc isn't enough to make the 'glue' and drizzle. I would use at least 75g for the 'glue' and 25g for the drizzle. Also I couldn't get the 50g of white choc to drizzle from a spoon. "

"These are amazing. So easy to make, but be warned they will ALL be eaten within seconds! Agree with others that quantities for 'glue' and drizzling are not enough - perhaps double these? I have been asked for the recipe for this so many times I've lost count! Great if you want to impress people but don't have much time."
