- Melt the butter, golden syrup and chocolate in the microwave or in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over a very low heat, and then stir until smooth.
- Crush the biscuits with a rolling pin, but leave some slightly larger chunks, and tip into the melted chocolate mixture with the raisins and hazelnuts.
- Stir well.
- Spoon the chocolate mixture into the prepared tin, pressing it down well to get a smooth even surface.
- When cool, chill in the fridge, then cut into squares and serve with tea!
