Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: Australian
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups Weetbix, crushed
- 1 cup desiccated coconut
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup melted butter
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, crush the Weetbix into fine crumbs using the back of a wooden spoon or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- Add desiccated coconut, chocolate chips, and unsweetened cocoa powder to the crushed Weetbix. Mix thoroughly until all dry ingredients are well combined.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter completely. Once melted, add honey and stir until the mixture is smooth and well integrated.
- Pour the warm butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix until all ingredients are evenly coated and form a consistent, sticky mixture.
- Line a rectangular baking tray (approximately 20x30cm) with parchment paper, ensuring some overhang for easy removal.
- Transfer the mixture into the lined tray, pressing down firmly and evenly with the back of a spoon to create a compact, smooth surface.
- Place the tray in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1-2 hours, or until the slice is completely set and firm.
- Once set, lift the slice out of the tray using the parchment paper overhang and place on a cutting board.
- Cut into 12 even rectangles or squares using a sharp knife.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Serve chilled for best texture and flavor.
Tips
- Crushing Weetbix: For the most uniform texture, use a rolling pin or food processor to create fine, even crumbs.
- Chocolate Variation: Feel free to swap chocolate chips with dark, milk, or white chocolate for different flavor profiles.
- Chilling is Key: Ensure you refrigerate the slice for at least 1-2 hours to achieve the perfect firm texture.
- Storage Hack: These slices freeze beautifully for up to a month, making them a great make-ahead treat.
- Cutting Tip: Run your knife under hot water before cutting to get clean, precise squares.
- Customize: Add chopped nuts or dried fruit for extra texture and flavor complexity.
