Preheat the oven to 150C/Gas 2; for the base, place the biscuits in a large bowl and crush with your hands or a rolling pin; add the butter and mix to a paste; press firmly and evenly in a 20cm square baking tin, lined with baking parchment; leave in the fridge to set
Melt the chocolate and butter in a microwave; whisk the eggs, yolk and sugar until thick and pale; gently fold in the chocolate mixture then the chopped chestnuts, figs and white chocolate; spread evenly over the biscuit base and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 25-30 minutes; when ready a skewer inserted in the bar will come out with lots of gooey crumb attached and there will be a light crust on top; cool then refrigerate until set
Remove from the tin and peel off the baking parchment, cut into bars and dust lightly with cocoa powder
