Method

1. Put dry gingerbread ingredients in a food processor & process until a bread crumb-like texture is achieved. Add rice malt syrup & process for a few seconds, until combined.
2. Line a baking tray with plastic wrap. Press gingerbread batter firmly into the tray & try to get it flat & even on top.
3. For the chocolate, put all ingredients in a small double boiler & whisk until combined.
4. Pour the chocolate over the gingerbread batter & spread out evenly. Put slice in the fridge or freezer to set. When firm, cut into bars. Enjoy! Store in the fridge.
