Description

A delightful no-bake Mini Egg Tray Bake that combines crunchy digestive biscuits with colorful Cadbury Mini Eggs and layers of milk and white chocolate. Perfectly sweet and easy to prepare, this tray bake sets in the fridge and makes a fun treat for sharing.


Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 150 g Digestive biscuits
  • 160 g Cadbury Mini Eggs, crushed into small chunks

Chocolate Mixture

  • 200 g Milk or semi-sweet chocolate
  • 120 g Butter
  • 4 Tablespoons Golden syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons Cocoa powder

Topping

  • 200 g White chocolate
  • 80 g Mini Eggs, roughly crushed


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tin: Line an 8×8-inch baking tin with baking paper to ensure easy removal of the tray bake once set.
  2. Crush Biscuits and Mini Eggs: In a large bowl, crush the digestive biscuits into medium-sized chunks. Then add the crushed Cadbury Mini Eggs and stir to combine evenly.
  3. Melt Chocolate Mixture: Break the milk or semi-sweet chocolate into pieces and place into a saucepan. Add the butter, golden syrup, and cocoa powder. Melt gently over low heat, stirring constantly to create a smooth chocolate mixture.
  4. Combine and Press: Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the bowl containing the crushed biscuits and Mini Eggs. Mix well until everything is thoroughly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the lined baking tin, spreading it out evenly.
  5. Melt and Spread White Chocolate: Gently melt the white chocolate until smooth. Spread it evenly over the top of the chocolate biscuit base using a spatula or back of a spoon.
  6. Add Mini Egg Topping: Sprinkle the roughly crushed Mini Eggs on top of the white chocolate layer. Arrange them thoughtfully, especially the larger pieces, to facilitate easier cutting later.
  7. Refrigerate to Set: Place the tray bake in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, allowing it to firm up completely.
  8. Serve: Once set, remove from the fridge and carefully cut into slices or squares. Enjoy this colorful, crunchy, and chocolaty no-bake treat!
