Ingredients You’ll Need
The magic of Ferrero Rocher Tiffin lies in its simple, accessible ingredients. Each component brings something special: from the rich chocolatey base to the crunchy hazelnuts and iconic Ferrero Rocher chocolates, every bite is layered with flavor and texture.
- Digestive biscuits (200g, crushed): These create the essential crunchy foundation; substitute with graham crackers or rich tea biscuits if preferred.
- Milk chocolate (200g, chopped): The main chocolatey base, lending creaminess and sweetness to the tiffin.
- Dark chocolate (100g, chopped): Adds a deeper cocoa note and balances the overall sweetness.
- Unsalted butter (125g): Gives richness and helps bind all the dry ingredients together for that perfect tiffin texture.
- Golden syrup (4 tablespoons): Adds sweetness and ensures a glossy, chewy finish; substitute with light corn syrup if needed.
- Hazelnuts (100g, roughly chopped): Bring in the signature Ferrero Rocher crunch and nutty depth.
- Ferrero Rocher chocolates (8, chopped): The star ingredient, infusing every square with their signature hazelnut-chocolate magic.
- Ferrero Rocher chocolates (6, whole, for topping): For a show-stopping finish and extra indulgence on top.
- Nutella (50g): Creamy, nutty, and chocolatey, this spreads luxurious flavor throughout the tiffin.
- Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon): Adds warmth and rounds out the chocolate flavors.
- Pinch of salt: Just a touch to enhance and balance all the sweet notes.
How to Make Ferrero Rocher Tiffin
Step 1: Prepare Your Tin
Line an 8-inch square baking tin with parchment paper, letting the paper overhang the sides. This makes it so much easier to lift out the tiffin later—no sticking, no mess, just perfect squares every time.
Step 2: Melt the Chocolate Mixture
In a large saucepan over low heat, combine the unsalted butter, golden syrup, chopped milk chocolate, and dark chocolate. Stir gently but constantly until everything is melted and smooth. Take your time here; gentle heat ensures the chocolate stays glossy and doesn’t seize.
Step 3: Add Nutella and Vanilla
Remove the pan from the heat and immediately stir in the Nutella and vanilla extract. These additions create an extra velvety, nutty layer of flavor that makes Ferrero Rocher Tiffin so irresistible. Mix until everything is silky and well blended.
Step 4: Mix in the Crunch
Add the crushed digestive biscuits, chopped hazelnuts, a pinch of salt, and chopped Ferrero Rocher chocolates to the pan. Fold everything together, making sure every crumb and nut is coated in the chocolate mixture. This is where the magic happens—the mix should look chunky, glossy, and seriously tempting.
Step 5: Set and Decorate
Pour the tiffin mixture into the lined tin and press down firmly with a spatula to level the surface. Press the whole Ferrero Rocher chocolates gently into the top, spacing them out so every piece gets a bite of that signature treat. For an extra flourish, drizzle some melted chocolate over the top before chilling if you like.
Step 6: Chill and Slice
Pop the tin into the fridge and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the tiffin is fully set and firm to the touch. Once ready, lift the slab out using the parchment, slice into 16 neat squares, and marvel at the layers of chocolate and crunch in every piece.
How to Serve Ferrero Rocher Tiffin
Garnishes
A dusting of cocoa powder or a drizzle of extra melted chocolate adds instant elegance to Ferrero Rocher Tiffin. You can even sprinkle over some finely chopped hazelnuts for a little extra crunch and visual appeal. Each square topped with a whole Ferrero Rocher is already eye-catching, but a few little extras never hurt!
Side Dishes
Serve your Ferrero Rocher Tiffin alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for pure dessert bliss. If you’re planning a dessert platter, fresh berries make a lovely, tart contrast to the rich chocolate. For a sophisticated touch, pair with espresso or a glass of dessert wine.
Creative Ways to Present
Cut the tiffin into bite-sized cubes and serve in mini cupcake cases for a party-ready treat, or wrap individual squares in cellophane for edible gifts. You can also layer the tiffin squares in a trifle with whipped cream and berries for a truly show-stopping dessert. However you serve it, Ferrero Rocher Tiffin always impresses.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
Keep any leftover Ferrero Rocher Tiffin in an airtight container in the fridge. It will stay delicious and fresh for up to a week, making it perfect for snacking or sharing throughout the week.
Freezing
Yes, you can freeze Ferrero Rocher Tiffin! Simply wrap individual squares in cling film and pop them in a freezer-safe bag. They’ll keep well for up to three months—just thaw them in the fridge overnight when you’re ready to enjoy.
Reheating
No reheating required here! Ferrero Rocher Tiffin is meant to be enjoyed cold or at room temperature. If it’s a bit too firm straight from the fridge, let it sit out for a few minutes before serving for the best texture.
FAQs
Can I use a different type Dessert
Absolutely! While digestive biscuits give a classic British flavor, graham crackers or rich tea biscuits work beautifully. The key is to use a plain, crunchy biscuit that won’t overpower the chocolate and hazelnut flavors.
Is there a substitute for golden syrup?
If golden syrup isn’t available, light corn syrup makes a good alternative. It keeps the tiffin chewy and shiny, but you could also try honey for a subtle floral note—just be aware it may slightly change the flavor.
Can I make Ferrero Rocher Tiffin gluten-free?
Yes! Simply swap the digestive biscuits for your favorite gluten-free variety. Check that all other ingredients, like the chocolates and Nutella, are certified gluten-free as well.
How do I cut neat squares without crumbling?
For perfect, bakery-worthy slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry. This helps glide through the chocolate smoothly and gives you those clean, sharp edges everyone loves.
Can I double the recipe for a bigger crowd?
Definitely! Just use a larger baking tin and double all the ingredients. The chilling time may increase slightly, but you’ll have plenty of Ferrero Rocher Tiffin to go around—perfect for parties and celebrations.
