Steps

  1. In a food processor add flour, sugar, cocoa powder and salt - pulse until mixed. Alternatively, sift by hand into a mixing bowl.

  2. Add in butter and pulse until mixture comes together into a smooth dough. Alternatively, use your hands to combine butter into dry ingredients until smooth dough comes together.

  3. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and press dough into the pan evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 mins.

  4. When ready, pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.

  5. Prick shortbread with a fork all over, and bake until firm to the touch and pulling away from sides, approx. 35-40 minutes.

  6. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

  7. Brush St. Dalfour fruit spread over shortbread surface and set aside.

  8. To make the ganache, finely chop chocolate and place in a metal bowl.

  9. In a saucepan, bring cream to a boil. Once boiling, immediately pour over chocolate and start whisking swiftly to melt the chocolate.

  10. Whisk chocolate until fully melted, and a smooth, glossy ganache forms.

  11. Pour immediately over the shortbread, spreading evenly, and place in the fridge to set.

  12. Slice with a large knife to ensure even edges.

  13.  Enjoy!
