  3. Put the chocolate, butter and golden syrup into a microwavable bowl and melt in 30-second bursts, mixing between bursts.
  4. Add the biscuits and fruits and mix well.
  5. Tip the mixture into the cake tin and level with the back of a spoon.
  6. Dollop the milk and dark melted chocolates on top of the cake and swirl them together.
