Ingredients
For the slice base
200 g butter salted
½ cup caster sugar / 100g
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 cup desiccated coconut, heaped / 80g
3 cups cornflakes, crushed / 90g
1 cup self raising flour, heaped / 150g
1.5 tbsp cocoa powder
For the chocolate top
1 block Cadbury milk chocolate / 180g
Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C / 360°F.
- Pop a large saucepan on low heat. Add in the butter and melt first. Then pop in your sugar, golden syrup, coconut, cocoa and self-raising flour. Mix well until combined, then add in the crushed cornflakes last and mix again. Finally, pour into a slice tray or glass baking tray 20 x 30 cm / 8 x 12 inches.
- Using the back of a spoon or spatula, press firmly and flatten (especially into the corners) then pop in the oven and bake for around 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- Once cooled, break up the chocolate in a bowl and melt in 30 second intervals in the microwave, stirring between each session. Once completely melted, layer with a spatula on top of the slice and place in the fridge to set.
- Allow to set for a minimum of 15 minutes, before removing and slicing into squares, triangles or slices, ready to eat straight away or pack for a lunch snack.
