Chocolate Drizzle Flapjacks are wonderfully chewy and decorated with white and dark chocolate for the ultimate flapjack eating experience!
Today I’m sharing with you Chocolate Drizzle Flapjacks!
I can’t actually remember the first recipe I ever made but if I was a betting person I think it would be Flapjacks from “Learnabout… Cooking” by Ladybird Books. This was my first ever cookery book and cost the princely sum of 24 p.
I’m sure I would have made the Jam Tarts and Shortbread from here too! I stumbled across this book in my daughters room the other day and suggested we should make something from it.
Hence we gave the Flapjack recipe a tweak with some soft brown sugar and added a chocolate drizzle decoration as we are all chocoholics in this house.
I’d never made my own piping bags before but decided that from experience, using the daub with a spoon method was not going to be pretty enough.
Armed with my can-do approach and a bit of logic the piping bags worked really well. I’d use this method again as they took no time at all to put together and the effect they gave was fab.
We really enjoyed these Chocolate Drizzle Flapjacks as unlike a recipe I have used in the past they are not brittle and have a nice chew to them which together with the chocolate topping is just a yummy fudgy combination.

Chocolate Drizzle Flapjack
Ingredients
- 75 g / 3 oz Golden syrup
- 75 g / 3 oz Light brown sugar
- 75 g / 3 oz Butter or Spread eg Flora Buttery
- 150 g / 6 oz Rolled Oats
- 1 Pinch of salt
- A little oil for greasing
- Topping:
- 50 g / 2 oz Dark Chocolate
- 50 g / 2 oz White Chocolate
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 160°C.
- Grease the inside of an 18cm (7”) shallow cake tin and line with baking paper.
- Put the golden syrup, butter and sugar in a pan over a low heat stirring until melted.
- Pour in the oats and salt and mix well.
- Put the mixture in the cake tin pressing it down well with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the centre of flapjack is firm to the touch.
- Remove from oven and mark out portions whilst still hot.
- Once cool turn out onto a cooling rack.
- Now make 2 small piping bags out of baking paper.
- Tear off about 30 cm of baking paper from roll and fold in half (lengthways).
- Then roll into a cone shape using the centre point as the tip of the cone.
- Trim excess paper off and fold rim over itself to secure. Repeat.
- Now make the chocolate topping by first melting the dark chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of hot water on a low heat.
- Spoon the chocolate into one of your piping bags and snip off the tip with scissors.
- Now pipe over the flapjack being as creative as you like.
- Repeat the above steps with the white chocolate and allow chocolate to set before serving. A brief stint in the fridge is helpful but only for about 10 mins as you don’t want the dark chocolate to go cloudly.

Oh that looks good Camilla. Never thought of baking flapjacks in a round tin. Not sure why not.
Camilla
Thanks! Well Jacs, this is how we did it on the old days and my mum’s tins used to have a metal slider that you swiveled round to loosen your bake LOL:-)
Anneli (Delicieux)
That looks so yummy! My kids will love it. Definitely going to knock up a batch of flapjacks at the weekend. You have inspired me 🙂 x

Javelin Warrior
Love the use of the oats and I’m wondering if it might even be possible to make this with maple syrup or part maple syrup… Such a heart and delicious treat…
Camilla
Thanks Mark. Not sure about maple syrup as it much thinner thank golden syrup but maybe a mixture would give it a nice Mapley taste:-)
Jacqueline @How to be a Gourmand
I’ve just come back from a hike and I could murder a slice of this and a large mug of tea Camilla – just the energy boost I need. Love the idea of two types of chocolate on top 🙂
Camilla
Ooh yes this would be perfect after a hike, guilt free pleasure in that case win/win:-)
Laura Loves Cakes
That’s a blast from the past…I’m pretty sure I had that cookbook too! 🙂 Lovely looking flapjacks and I love the addition of the chocolate drizzle on the top too! 🙂
Camilla
It is indeed and so different from today’s kids cook books – don’t think they’d tell them not to lick their fingers, but maybe they should:-) Thanks for your lovely comment and taking the time to pop over:-)
Janice
They look great Camilla, thanks for entering them in Credit Crunch Munch.
Ang
