100g golden syrup 200g dark chocolate , chopped

100g milk chocolate , chopped

80g dried banana chips 100g dried tropical fruit (we used mango and pineapple), roughly chopped 50g Brazil nuts , roughly chopped 50g mini marshmallo­ws

50g desiccated coconut 1 ball stem ginger , finely chopped

1 Line a 20 x 20cm baking tin with baking parchment. Put the butter, golden syrup, chocolate and a pinch of salt into a saucepan. Set over a low heat and gently melt, stirring from time to time, until you have a glossy liquid.

2 Crumble the biscuits and banana chips into a large bowl, leaving some pieces larger than others to create a bumpy texture. Add the dried fruit, nuts, marshmallo­ws, coconut and ginger, and pour over the chocolate mixture. Stir well, ensuring that everything is well coated, then tip into the tin. Use a spoon to press the mixture down and level the surface.

3 Chill for at least 2 hrs or until firmly set. Cut into 16 squares and pack for a picnic. Store in a tin for up to 3 days.
