Ingredients

• 185g flour
• 5 teaspoons caster sugar
• 100g unsalted butter, chilled and diced
• 1 egg, beaten
• Filling and topping
• 150ml golden syrup
• 90g unsalted butter
• 225g dark chocolate, chopped
• 3 large eggs, lightly beaten

Method

Sift the flour into the bowl of a food processor, add sugar and butter and process until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs, about 30 seconds. Add egg and quickly mix to
form a smooth dough. Shape into a disc on a lightly floured surface, wrap
in plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes. Roll out pastry and line a 23cm
round pie dish. Trim and edges and chill for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to
180 C Place the golden syrup, butter and 175g chocolate into a saucepan
and melt over a gentle heat. Remove from heat, add eggs and beat well. Pour
mixture into chilled pastry case. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until filling
has set, leave to cool completely.
