1. Place the digestive biscuits in a strong plastic food bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
2. Mix the digestive biscuits, margarine and syrup together and put into a large flan tin with a removable bottom.
3. Pat the mixture down firmly to make a base.
4. Put the base in the fridge while making the filling.

9. Chill well before serving (minimum 3 hours, but ideally overnight).
