Instructions
FOR THE CAKE
Grease and line an 8 inch round springform pan with baking paper
Break up the biscuits into 1-2cm pieces and set aside.
In a large bowl, melt together the butter, golden syrup, cocoa, cream and salt, in the microwave in 30 second bursts. Stir well between each until it's just melted together. Don't overheat.
Add the broken biscuits and ⅔ of the maltesers to the chocolate mixture and mix well.
Tip into prepared tin, pressing down well.
Place in the fridge.
FOR THE GANACHE:Heat the cream in a saucepan or microwave until hot (if on the stove you’ll see bubble just start to appear).
Place finely chopped chocolate in a bowl and pour the hot cream over. Sit for 3 minutes before stirring to a smooth ganache.
Pour it over the cake and let it set 3 hours or overnight.
Arrange remaining Maltesers around the top. If you want to be extra decadent, garnish with some whipped cream too.

Notes
Biscuits: Milk Coffee or Milk Arrowroot work perfectly, but you could also use graham crackers or digestive biscuits (like mcvites). You just need a crunchy cookie.
