Step 2 of 5
Place biscuits in a food processor. Process until finely chopped, being careful not to process too fine.
Step 3 of 5
Using an electric mixer, beat butter, caster sugar, vanilla, ginger, mixed spice and cinnamon until pale and creamy. Add milk. Beat until combined. Add cocoa. Beat until combined. Add in chocolate and biscuit crumbs. Stir until coated and well combined. Stir in nuts. Refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes or until mixture is slightly firmer.
Step 4 of 5
Divide mixture between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap. Using plastic as a guide, firmly roll each portion to form a 4cm x 25cm smooth log. Twist ends of plastic to seal. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight, until firm.
