CHOCOLATE HEDGEHOG SLICE

Steps:

• Line a 20cm x 25cm (7.9inch x 9.8 inch) tin with baking paper.
• Crush the biscuits, leaving some larger bits, and mix with the coconut.
• Place the butter, condensed milk, dark chocolate and cocoa powder in a saucepan and melt over a low heat until the butter and chocolate are melted (around 5 minutes). Stir often to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• When the condensed milk mixture is ready, take off the heat and stir in the biscuit crumbs and coconut.
• Spoon into the prepared tin and flatten down well, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon (if the mixture is sticking to the spoon run it under hot water for a few seconds).
• To make the topping, melt the milk and dark chocolate and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, or melt in a microwave.
• Pour over the biscuit base and smooth out to cover.
• Place in fridge for 3 hours to set.
• Remove from the fridge 30 minutes before you want to slice. Using a sharp knife, cut into 20 squares.
• Place back in the fridge to fully set before taking off the greaseproof paper and serving.
• Store in the fridge.
