In case you’re stuck in a recipe rut, here’s a fail-safe recipe for Chocolate Tiffin to add to your repertoire!
“Chocolate Tiffin is my favourite thing to bake from my British side. This recipe originates from my mum’s grandmother. It reminds me of when we drive from my grandma’s to my aunt’s, which is quite a few hours. We pack slices and often finish them within the first few hours! I love the texture.” – Georgia Bisset, British-South African
