Back in 2011 @amethist posted this recipe. I've made it each year since. It's so good. I felt the need to resurrect it for everyone to share
Snow Covered earth Squares
Ingredients
160gms/5oz Hazelnuts
200gms/7oz Crunchie Bars
150gms/5oz Dried cranberries
100gms/4oz Mini marsmallows
300gms/10oz Dark chocolate, broken into pieces.
100gms/4oz Milk chocolate, broken into pieces
175gms/6oz Soft unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
4 tbs Golden syrup
Icing sugar for dusting
Method
1. Line a 20cm x 30cm baking tin with a large piece of kitchen foil.
2. Roughly chop half the hazelnuts, leaving the rest whole.
3. Place the Crunchie bars in a strong plastic bag and bash them with a rolling pin, so the pieces are of various sizes, but not too big
4. Place the chocolate, butter and syrup into a large pan, over a low heat and gently melt all together,
stirring all the time.
5. Once melted, take the pan off the heat and stir in the cranberries, marshmallows and broken
Crunchie bars.
6. Tip the mixture into the prepared baking tin and smooth the top using a large metal spoon.
7. Chill for 11/2 - 2 hours, until set.
8. Lift the chocolate slab from the tin and peel off the foil.
9. Dust the top with a little icing sugar, and cut into squares.
To serve at a party, pile onto a serving dish and dust with more icing sugar.
