Report
Weetbix slice is an old-school family favourite that uses pantry staples along with the last few crumbles in the cereal box to make a yummy chocolate treat!

Ingredients
- 65 g Weetbix breakfast biscuits (approximately 4 biscuits) finely crushed
- 150 g self-raising flour also known as self-rising flour
- 55 g light brown sugar
- 85 g desiccated coconut
- 2 tablespoon cocoa powder I use Dutch processed
- 150 g butter melted, salted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon golden syrup
Chocolate Icing
- 230 g icing sugar aka confectioners sugar
- 3 tablespoon cocoa powder I use Dutch processed
- 30 g butter salted
- 2 tablespoon water boiling
- 1 tablespoon desiccated coconut for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180c.
- Grease and line a 20 cm (8") square baking tin with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine crushed Weetbix, self-raising flour, light brown sugar, desiccated coconut, cocoa powder, melted butter, vanilla and golden syrup, mixing well to incorporate.
- Tip the mixture into the prepared baking tin.
- Press down firmly to compact, then place in the oven to bake for 15 minutes.
- Allow the base to cool slightly in the tin while you make the icing.
- To make the chocolate icing, combine icing sugar, cocoa powder, butter and boiling water in a small bowl.
- Stir well to combine then spoon icing over (baked) base and spread out evenly.
- Sprinkle with extra coconut and place in the fridge to cool in the tin for at least an hour before slicing.
Notes
- *Please note that the nutrition information is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- Make your own self-raising flour by combining 2 teaspoons of baking powder with every cup (150 grams) of plain flour, then sift together well.
- I highly recommend using Dutch-processed cocoa powder, it tastes much richer.
