{Chocolate Weetbix Slice}



So school is back which is both good and bad.  Bad in that I am back to making lunches each morning and each afternoon I'm informed of what sucked about the lunches.  This slice is a regular lunchbox addition and has never gotten a bad wrap.

...slice
4 weetbix biscuits, crushed
1 cup desiccated coconut
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup self raising flour
3 tbsp dutch cocoa

50g dark chocolate
180g butter
1 tsp vanilla extract

...icing
50g dark chocolate
55g butter
40ml milk
1.5 cups icing sugar

1 tbsp dutch cocoa
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt


Preheat oven to 180. Lightly grease your slice pan and line with baking paper. Crush weetbix into a mixing bowl (fun), add coconut, sugar, flour and cocoa then stir to combine.

Melt butter and dark chocolate in a small saucepan over a low heat. Pour over dry ingredients, add the vanilla stir till combined.

Tip mixture into prepared pan and press down to level with the back of a spoon. Bake for 20 minutes.


Cool on a rack then ice when warm or cool.

To make the icing melt the butter, dark chocolate and milk in small saucepan. Take off the heat add vanilla, let it cool for 5 minutes then stir in the icing sugar and cocoa, whisk till smooth.  Pour over slice and pop in the fridge to set.
