Pret-style Choc Bars

copycat recipe made vegan - this is a dupe for the Chocolate Tiffin Bars you find in Pret (dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, sesame-free, can be soya-free, can be gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan)
Prep Time 15 minutes
chilling time 2 hours
Servings: 8
Course: Snack, tea time

Ingredients
  

  • 170 g dairy-free dark chocolate
  • 120 g dairy-free margarine
  • 3 tbsps golden or maple syrup
  • 12 biscuits roughly crushed ( I used M&S Digestives )
  • 20 g Rice Krispies or raisins if you like
  • 100 g dairy-free milk chocolate

Equipment

  • 2lb loaf tin

Method
 

  1. Line the loaf tin with baking parchment
  2. Melt together the chocolate, margarine and syrup. Stir well to form a gorgeous truffle mixture
  3. Take 4 of the biscuits and fully crush to make a fine breadcrumb texture, roughly crush the remaining 8 to give chunks of biscuit
  4. Fold the crushed and broken biscuits into the truffle mixture.
  5. Pour into the lined mould and press down firmly for a compacted centre and even top
  6. Place in the fridge for at least a couple of hours to firm up
  7. Melt the milk chocolate and pour over the set tiffin. level off and leave to fully set before cutting into bars. These bars don't need to be kept in the fridge but if it's warm weather i'd suggest you should.

Notes

To make these bars gluten-free just use your favourite gluten-free biscuits
