Climbing, canoeing, cycling, all these activities take a lot of energy. Luckily our catering team are on hand providing home cooked meals and tasty treats. I asked Helen to divulge her Vanilla Tiffin recipe, be aware though, it is a very sweet treat indeed!
This recipe makes enough for 72 pieces so you may want to adjust the quantities accordingly!
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs Margarine
12 Tablespoons of Syrup
1 lb 2 oz of Caster Sugar
1 lb 2 oz of Dried Mixed Fruit
1 Dessert spoon of Vanilla Essence
2 lbs Crushed Digestive Biscuits
Sufficient White Cooking Chocolate for the Topping.
Method:
Gently melt the margarine and syrup together.
In a mixing bowl add and mix together all of the dried ingredients.
Pour the melted margarine and syrup into the mixing bowl of dried ingredients.
Add the vanilla essence.
Stir the mixture together.
Add the mixture to greased baking trays, pressing the mixture down smoothly.
Melt the white cooking chocolate and pour onto the trays and smooth over the tiffin.
Chill in a fridge for an hour or so before marking into slices and cutting.
Enjoy.
