FUDGE CAKE

This is my mothers recipe...in fact the original recipe in my battered old cookbook asks for 1/4 lb of butter! And I recall as a child a large tin of 'broken biscuits' in the cupboard which she more than likely used to make this with. An absolute must have for my daughters birthday parties when they were growing up too...

• 125g butter (1/4 lb!!!)
• 1 tblspn cocoa
• 2 tblspn milk
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 x packet super wine biscuits
• 1/4 - 1/2 cup chopped assortment of dried apricots/dates/walnuts (whatever you have in the pantry)

Melt the butter, cocoa, milk and sugar,stirring in a small saucepan until all combined.
Process the biscuits in a food processor until almost breadcrumby, but don't worry if there are a few larger pieces. 

Place in a bowl with the chopped apricots etc and pour melted mixture in. Mix until combined and press into a cake tin, put in fridge to cool. Ice with chocolate icing, cut into squares and serve.

Lasts well refrigerated but it doesn't usually last longer than 2 days before it is all eaten (especially when the Greek guy has never tasted it before and keeps having to have 'one more piece'!!!
