Quick and Easy Chocolate Torte

I love it when I find a recipe that is quick and easy to make. This chocolate torte fits nicely into that category and is ideal to make if you do not want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen.

It doesn't get any easier than this!









Ingredients:

2 x 200g packets digestive biscuits
30g butter
30ml golden syrup
15ml cocoa powder
300g dark chocolate
2 x 250g cartons mascarpone

To make:

Crush biscuits in a food processor, combine with melted butter, syrup and cocoa. Grease a flan pan and line with the biscuit mix. Refrigerate one hour. Melt chocolate, add to mascarpone cheese. Mix well pour onto biscuit base. Refrigerate until firm.
