Apparently Christmas Crack is all the rage at the moment.

Traditionally, it’s made with Salada biscuits, a buttery toffee layer, and melted chocolate on top.

I couldn’t help myself and decided to Greek-ify it. 😁

This version takes inspiration from kourabiedes; that rich, buttery, almond shortbread we all know and love at Christmas and turns it into a slice-and-share “Christmas crack” style treat. Same idea, familiar flavours, just with a Greek touch 🤍
