Getting it done:
- Line a Tupperware container with cling film or lightly butter a mould or tray
- Melt the butter, sugar, syrup and cocoa
- Melt the chocolate
- Stir the raisins, biscuits and sponge bits in the butter mix – fold in fully
- Add the melted chocolate – fold in again
- Pour into your mould
- Refrigerate for two hours
