Mary Berry Fridge Cake is a no-bake chocolate tray treat made by mixing crushed biscuits, melted chocolate, butter, and golden syrup. The mixture sets in the fridge instead of the oven, resulting in a dense, crunchy, chocolatey slice.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 225g digestive biscuits (crushed)

  • 100g butter

  • 50g golden syrup

  • 200g dark chocolate (or a mix of milk and dark)

  • 75g raisins or dried fruit (optional)

  • 50g chopped nuts (optional)

  • Extra chocolate for topping (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the tin

Line a square tin with parchment so the fridge cake lifts out easily after setting.

Step 2: Melt the chocolate mixture

Place butter, chocolate, and golden syrup in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth and glossy.

Step 3: Crush the biscuits

Break the digestive biscuits into small chunks—not crumbs—to give the cake its signature crunch.

Step 4: Combine everything

Stir the crushed biscuits into the melted chocolate mixture. Add dried fruit or nuts if you like.

Step 5: Press into the tin

Spoon the mixture into the lined tin and press down firmly to create an even surface.

Step 6: Add optional topping

Pour melted chocolate over the top or decorate with extra biscuit pieces for texture.

Step 7: Chill until firm

Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours until the cake is fully set and easy to slice.

Step 8: Slice and serve

Lift out of the tin, cut into neat squares, and enjoy your rich chocolate fridge cake.
