Step 2: Crush the Digestive Biscuits
Place the digestive biscuits in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin. You can also use a food processor for this step. Make sure to leave some bigger chunks for added texture.

Step 4: Add the Dried Fruits and Nuts
Next, add in the dried fruits and nuts to the chocolate mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
