Makes one 8 inch square pan

Bet you can't eat just one piece!!

11 ounces good quality milk chocolate (I use Green & Blacks Organic
which has a high cocoa butter content)
4 1/2 ounces good quality plain chocolate (again use one with a high cocoa butter content)
4 ounces unsalted butter
3 ounces mini marshmallows (M&S make some very nice ones, you can find them
in the baking section)
3 ounces digestive biscuits, crumble
(Put them into a baggie and crush them with a rolling pin,
not too fine though, you want some chunky bits)
2 ounces glace cherries, chopped
2 ounces blanched almonds, chopped

Take an 8 inch square pan and line it well with plastic cling film, leaving a bit of an overhang.

Mix the marshmallows, biscuit crumbles, chopped cherries and chopped almonds together in a bowl.  Place both chocolates along with the butter into a bowl and place over a pan of simmering water.  Heat and whisk until completely melted and amalgamated.  Pour this over top of the marshmallow mixture.  Mix together well and then scrape the mixture into the prepared pan. Press down with the back of a spoon to smooth out. Place into the refrigerator to chill for several hours.  Remove from the fridge and lift out of the pan.  Cut into squares with a sharp knife.  Delicious!
