Ingredients
155g chopped dates
125g butter
½ cup sugar
60g crystalised ginger, very finely chopped
3½ cups of cornflakes
300g chocolate, to melt
Method
Stir the dates, chopped butter, sugar and ginger over low heat in a large pan until the dates are soft.
Remove from the heat and add the cornflakes, mixing well.
Press into a lined square brownie or slice tin and refrigerate to set.
Once set, melt the chocolate, and spread over the top. Refrigerate again to set.
Cut into small squares and serve.
Note: Grandma would use 1 cup of drinking chocolate with 125g melted copha to replace the more expensive chocolate.
