Ingredients
For the Biscuit Base
- 6 Marie Biscuits crushed coarsely
- 125 gm Chocolate dark, grated
- 200 ml Sweetened Milk condensed
- 60 gm Butter unsalted
- 50 gm Walnuts coarsely chopped, lightly roasted
- 30 gm Peanuts coarsely chopped, roasted
For the Milk Chocolate Topping
- 50 gm Milk Chocolate grated
- 15 gm Butter unsalted
Instructions
Prepare the Baking Tin
- Line a square 8x8 inch baking tin with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two opposite sides for easy removal.
Make the Biscuit Base
- In a thick-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in the grated dark chocolate until melted and combined.
- Gently fold in the crushed Marie biscuits, roasted walnuts, and peanuts.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking tin and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Prepare the Milk Chocolate Topping
- In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over simmering water, melt the milk chocolate and butter together, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent seizing.
Assemble and Chill
- Pour the cooled milk chocolate topping over the firm biscuit base. Spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely set.
- Once set, lift the slice from the tin using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares using a sharp serrated knife and serve.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Hedgehog Slice:
- For extra crunch, toast the nuts in a dry pan before adding them to the mixture.
- Use good-quality chocolate for the best flavor and melt.
- If your chocolate topping seizes (becomes grainy), whisk in a teaspoon of warm cream to smooth it out.
- For easier cutting, chill the slice for a longer period or briefly freeze it before slicing.
