Ingredients
  • BASE
  • 250g Granita biscuits
  • ½ cup pecans, walnuts or roasted almonds (optional)
  • 130g butter
  • 130g best quality dark chocolate (I use Lindt 70%)
  • 1 cup sultanas (or goji berries)
  • 150g condensed milk
  • 1 Tbsp YIAH Raspberry Chocolate Truffle powder
  • 2 tsp Raspberry Powder
  • TOPPING
  • 200g best quality milk chocolate (I use Lindt)
  • 1 Tbsp coconut oil
  • SWIRL
  • 50g best quality white chocolate (Lindt again!)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp raspberry powder
  • 1 tsp beetroot powder (or red food colouring suitable for chocolate)
Method
  1. Grease and line a 20cm square cake tin. Make sure the paper is higher than the sides of the tin for ease of removal.
  2. Chop biscuits in Thermomix bowl by pulsing on speed 4 to 5. You want the biscuit to be still chunky. I break up larger pieces with my fingers. Set aside.
  3. If using nuts place them into the Thermomix bowl and chop again by pulsing on speed 4 to 5. Set aside with biscuits.
  4. Don't wash bowl. Add dark chocolate, broken into pieces and butter. Melt at 50/speed 1 - 2/5 minutes.
  5. Add in milk, powders and sultanas and stir on reverse/speed 2/20 seconds or so. Use spatula to add biscuits or biscuit and nut mix.
  6. Spoon into prepared tin and smooth the top with spatula or wet hands. Refrigerate for an hour or so.
  7. Melt milk chocolate and coconut oil in Thermomix at 50/speed 1 - 2/5 minutes. Meanwhile, melt white chocolate and coconut oil on 50% power in a pyrex bowl until liquid. Remove a tiny bit and mix with powders. Stir back into remaining melted white chocolate.
  8. Pour milk chocolate over slice and smooth out to cover evenly. Place coloured and flavoured white chocolate into a small ziplock bag. Seal, then cut a small hole in one corner. Pipe lines or swirls on milk chocolate topping. Swirl with a skewer if desired.
  9. Refrigerate for two hours.
  10. Remove completely from tin and place on a board to cut into small squares.
Notes
Serve with coffee as an after dinner treat. Or grab a piece when you have a craving for something sweet!
