Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 7 ounces tea biscuits, broken into small pieces

  • ½ cup butter, melted

  • 1 egg

  • cup dark cocoa powder

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 1 tablespoon chocolate-hazelnut spread (such as Nutella®)

Directions

  1. Mix tea biscuits, butter, egg, cocoa powder, and white sugar together in a bowl to form a moist but stiff dough. Stir in chocolate-hazelnut spread.

  2. Transfer dough to a large piece of parchment paper. Shape into a log with your hands. Wrap parchment paper around the log, twisting ends shut.

  3. Chill until firm, 2 hours in the freezer or 5 hours in the refrigerator. Cut into slices with a sharp knife.

Cook's Note:

A great variety of tea biscuits would work well here, from common rich tea, digestives, or shortbread to Petit Beurre or Nice biscuits. Gluten-free biscuits could also be used for a wheat-free treat.
