250g butter
1 tin condensed milk
Topping
400g chocolate chunks

To make the base, blitz the biscuits in a food processor to a coarse crumb.
Melt together the butter and condensed milk. Add the melted mix to the biscuits and press into a tin that is about 22cm x 32cm.
To make the topping, layer these things on top of the base in this order: chocolate chunks, dried cranberries, sliced almonds and long thread coconut. Then pour the two tins of condensed milk over the top evenly.
