    Yummy and very easy to make, I must admit I didn't put the chocolate over the top as I was worried I would make a mess of it! I think its better to use chocolate digestives I find they hold together better than hob nobs which tend to crumble.

    Great recipe I tried to fthe first time today, but I struggled with the biscuit base as when I cooked I, it was too brittle and fell apart. The base worked better chilled instead of baked although its still very brittle/crumbly. Anyone any ideas on how to improve this or is this they way its supposed to be? Flippin yummy cake though even with crumbly base. My 2 children (ages 6&2) loved it - only a small slice for them though as its very sweet.

    My 15 yr old son made this and poured warm chocolate over the cream then swirled it in like a marble effect. It looked and tasted great and as we were doing a dessert challenge - whn the votes came in yes he won !!

    I made this yesterday for my sister who was visiting and it went down a treat although I made a few changes, which in the end more closely resembled the recipe that used to be printed on the back of Nestlé's can of condensed milk. As I was unable to find a can of their carnation caramel, I simply boiled an unopened can of condensed milk covered in water for around an hour and instead of baking the biscuit base, I chilled it in the fridge for approximately twenty minutes. The end result was still very good.
