Response to “Chocolate Hedgehog Slice”
Just made this for a Chistmas get together. Its so yummy! I melted chocolate over the top and sprinkled nuts over the top. I was a bit worried that the biscuits were too big and that I should of crushed them more, but once I put the chocolate over the top it looks really good. 🙂
