How To Make: Biscuit Fudge

This biscuit fudge is delightfully decadent and easy enough for the children to also join in and lend a helping hand. It’s also the perfect answer to bake sales, kids parties, gifts or when you find your family poking around the pantry for a sweet treat.

This old-fashioned favourite is so simple to make with the no-bake aspect of the recipe scoring major brownie points!

Crush your dry biscuits in either a food processor or by hand, but take care not to crush them too finely, seeing those yummy pieces inside the biscuit fudge is what it’s all about. A good idea is to put the biscuits into a plastic tub and crush them with a mug or thick glass. (This is where the little helping hands come in!)

The chocolate and dry biscuit mixture is pressed into a greased dish and left to set in the refrigerator. As easy as that…Enjoy!

PS: Make sure to keep this recipe safe for future generations of chocolate fudge lovers!

DID YOU KNOW?

  • The Marie biscuit (the best dry biscuit you could use for the recipe) was created by the London bakery Peek Freans in 1874 to commemorate the marriage of the Grand Duchess Maria Alexandrovna of Russia to the Duke of Edinburgh.
  • It became popular throughout Europe, particularly in Portugal and Spain where, following the Civil War, the biscuit became a symbol of the country’s economic recovery after bakeries produced mass quantities to consume a surplus of wheat.
