Choco biscuit peanut roll

Ingredients

(Serves: 10–12 slices | Prep time: 10 minutes | Chill time: 4 hours)

  • 500 g plain tea biscuits (or graham crackers)

  • 120 g sugar

  • 60 g unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 10 g vanilla sugar (or 1 tsp vanilla extract)

  • 250 ml milk (room temperature)

  • 150 g butter (unsalted)

  • 220 g roasted peanuts (divided: 120 g for the mixture, 100 g for coating)

  • Optional: coconut flakes, hazelnuts, or chocolate sprinkles for coating

🥣 Instructions

Step 1: Crush the Biscuits
Place the biscuits in a large bowl and break them into small chunks by hand (not crumbs – think mini pieces).

Step 2: Chop the Peanuts
Use a blender or knife to chop the peanuts. Add 120 g to the biscuits and keep 100 g aside for decoration.

Step 3: Make the Cocoa Syrup
In a saucepan, combine sugar, cocoa, and vanilla sugar. Gradually stir in the milk and bring to a gentle boil over low heat. Once it thickens slightly, remove from heat and stir in the butter until fully melted and smooth.

Step 4: Mix It All Together
Pour the warm cocoa syrup over the biscuit and peanut mix. Stir gently with a spatula until all the dry ingredients are coated and form a soft, moldable dough.

Step 5: Shape the Roll
Place the mixture on a sheet of baking paper or nylon foil. Shape into a thick log using your hands or by rolling with the help of the paper. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight to firm up.

Step 6: Decorate
Unwrap the roll and brush it lightly with melted butter. Roll it over the remaining chopped peanuts or coat with coconut flakes. Slice and serve.
