My love for simple and fuss-free cooking is well known. And when the recipe boasts of only few ingredients and promises a decadent treat, I itch to make them immediately. And this recipe from NDTV Cooks had my attention for the same reasons. Let its rustic looks not fool you as with just 4 ingredients, the cake is a sizzling treat to the taste buds.
The nutty, crunchy and textured bite of the cake is a delight to dig in. 
Chilled Nutty Choco Bites
- Total Time: 2 hours 30 minutes
- Yield: 4-6 servings 1x
Description
This chilled no-bake dessert combines the rich flavors of chocolate with the crunch of nuts and biscuits, creating a delightful treat for the senses.
Ingredients
- 175 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams good quality chocolate, cut into pieces (e.g., Cadbury Fruit & Nut)
- 250 grams digestive biscuits or graham crackers (e.g., Britannia's Nutrichoice)
- Assorted nuts, roughly chopped
Instructions
- In a small pan, gently heat the butter and chocolate together until both are melted and well combined. Stir occasionally to ensure a smooth mixture. Set aside to cool slightly.
- While the chocolate mixture is cooling, crush the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into fine crumbs. You can do this by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and using a rolling pin, or by pulsing them in a food processor.
- Combine the crushed biscuits and roughly chopped nuts in a large bowl.
- Pour the cooled chocolate mixture over the biscuit and nut mixture. Stir well until all the dry ingredients are thoroughly coated with the chocolate mixture.
- Line a square or rectangular dish with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the dish, pressing it down firmly and evenly with the back of a spoon or spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set and firm.
- Once set, remove from the refrigerator and cut into bite-sized pieces. Serve chilled.
Notes
You can enjoy the cake as is or crumble it and serve with chocolate sauce. Roughly chopping the nuts adds an earthy, rustic texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
