Method

  1. Line a 20cm square tin with baking paper. Place a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water and melt together the butter, chocolates and golden syrup. Stir well, then take off the heat.
  2. Tear the hot cross buns into small pieces, then stir into the chocolate mix, along with the digestive biscuits and most of the mini eggs.
  3. Scrape the mixture into the tin and use the back of a spoon to spread it into the corners. Scatter over the reserved mini eggs, then transfer to the fridge for at least 2 hrs (or up to 24 hrs) to set. Cut into 20 (4 x 5cm) pieces to serve. They’ll keep in a sealed container for up to 3 days.
