Grind the Biscuits: Place the biscuits in a blender and grind them into fine crumbs. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Chop the Peanuts: Roughly chop the roasted peanuts and add them to the bowl with the ground biscuits.
Step 2: Melt the Butter and Mix
Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, divide it into two equal parts.

Mix Chocolate with Dough: Pour the melted chocolate into the biscuit and peanut dough mixture. Stir until well combined.
Layer the Mixture: In a 20 cm x 20 cm (8 x 8 inch) baking pan lined with baking paper, create alternating layers of the chocolate-biscuit mixture and the coconut.
Step 5: Top with Chocolate
Melt the Remaining Chocolate: Melt the remaining half of the chocolate with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir until smooth.
Cover with Chocolate: Pour the melted chocolate over the layered mixture, reserving about 2 tablespoons for garnish.
