- Serves 12
Ingredients
Base:
- 150g (5oz) double chocolate cookies, crushed
- 25g (1oz) butter, melted
- Filling
- 170g tube Carnation Condensed Milk
- 225g (8oz) bitter chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
- 150ml carton double cream
To finish
- 225g (8oz) fresh raspberries

You will also need:

Method
- In a small bowl, combine the crushed biscuits and the melted butter, then press over the base of the cake tin. Chill well.
- Place the condensed milk and chocolate in a large bowl. Microwave on high for 1–2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chocolate has melted. Using an electric hand whisk, beat well until smooth, then leave to cool for a few minutes. Whisk the cream into the chocolate mixture and pour over the chilled biscuit base. Freeze for 4 hours or overnight.
