Old fashioned baking is the best, the recipes are quick, easy, economical and usually made using pantry staples.

My Nana made one like this I’m not sure if this is her recipe I’ve been making for years but it tastes just like it and every time I have a piece of it I remember her.

Using just a few ingredients and a bowl this one ticks all the boxes its chocolatey, fudgy and delicious so give it a try, its perfect for lunchboxes, morning tea and it freezes well.
