| 1 | Hi I'm looking for a nice slice or square recipe, can someone help me please. |
| 2 | We used to call it Fly Cemetery, I'm not sure what its real name is.. it has currants, and jam and cinnamon in it... |
| 3 | Hi Southerngurl .Thank you for your reply. I know the square, but like you I cant think of name. |
| 4 | My favourite is because it is so quick and easy and can also be used as a base to a peppermint slice. Chocolate Coconut Slice. |
| 5 | I think my mum called them Laughing Jennys cazzi - 2014-05-28 00:21:00 |

x?id=1284382&topic=13 I have posted my favourite many times previously but here it is again for you.....
My all-time favourite.....CARAMEL CRUMBLE
This slice is very like Tan Slice but just stirred together with no creaming of the butter and sugar. As its name suggests its topping is more crumbly but personally I like it better - to make and to eat!! It freezes well too if you want to hide some away for another time. Caramel Topping:
½ x 395g can sweetened condensed milk
2 tbsp golden syrup,
¼ cup brown sugar
55g (2oz) butter Mix all the topping ingredients together in a bowl over hot water for 5 minutes, then allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Base:
1½ cups flour.
1 tsp baking powder
115g (½ cup) sugar,
½ tsp vanilla essence,
115g (4oz) melted butter Place all the dry ingredients in a bowl, then add the vanilla essence and the melted butter and mix to a fairly soft crumbly consistency. Press approximately two thirds-three quarters of this crumbly mixture into a greased sponge roll tin, then spread the caramel topping over. Sprinkle over the remaining crumble mixture.
Bake at 180ºC for 20-30 minutes.
Allow to cool then cut into fingers or squares. :-)) 245sam - 2014-05-28 00:46:00 |

| 22 | I love ginger crunch or lemon & coconut slice but most slices I find far too sweet especially the ones you buy from bakeries - just taste sweet rather than having any individual flavour to them, very generic sarahb5 - 2015-04-03 16:51:00 |

| 30 | Came across this one the other day in my book, I had forgotten how good it is. Coffee Slice
4oz butter
1/2cup sugar
2 Tblsp coffee essence (coffee and Chicory)
1 tsp vanilla
Cream together and add two eggs one at a time, and mix well
Add 2 heaped cups flour and 2 tsp BP
Put in fridge for a while.
Roll out in 2 pieces, ( I roll out 1/2 the mixture, then cut into 4, it's easier to lift into tin and press down nicely ) Same with the top piece> It can be made straight on to cold oven tray.
Cover bottom piece with lots of raspberry jam, cover with second piece and bake mod oven 20-30 minutes, till beginning to brown. Ice when cold with coffee icing made from the coffee and chicory Ha ha whoops...who saw that?? Edited by rainrain1 at 10:55 am, Mon 17 Apr rainrain1 - 2017-04-17 10:54:00 |

| 39 | This is quick, easy and no-bake!
CARAMELLO SLICE ingredients:
250g (1 pack) of plain biscuits (I use superwines)
200g (approx 1/2 tin) of condensed milk
220g block of Cadbury Caramello Chocolate
125g of butter
2 x 220g blocks of Cadbury Milk Chocolate Instructions:
Line a 28cm x 18cm slice tray with baking paper making sure you leave paper hanging over the sides to help remove the slice from the tin once set.
Crush the biscuits into small pieces - you can use a food processor, or just bash them with the end of a rolling pin!
Break the Caramello Chocolate into squares and place it into a microwave bowl along with the butter (which has been cubed) and cook until melted - I cook for 30 second spurts and mix together in between.
In a large bowl add the melted butter & chocolate, condensed milk and crushed biscuits. Mix together to combine and then pour into the prepared tray.
Using a metal spoon, spread slice evenly over the tray and push down to smooth.
Break the milk chocolate into pieces and place it into a microwave safe bowl and cook for 30 second spurts until it has melted. I add a dash of cream and stir in so that the icing is not so hard.
Pour the melted milk chocolate over the top of the Caramello Slice and place in the fridge for 2 hours or until set.
Remove the set slice from the baking tray and cut into pieces. lisa7 - 2018-05-01 12:38:00 |
