Method
- Line the base of a 20cm spring form tin with greaseproof or baking paper.
- To make the base: Melt the butter in a pan. Whiz the digestive biscuits in a food processor to finely crush or place in a study bag and crush with a rolling pin. Add to the butter and mix together then tip into the cake tin. Press down and level with the back of a spoon. Chill for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile make the topping: Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of hot water (not boiling).
