Ingredients for chocolate Weetbix slice:

  • 4 weetbix, crushed
  • 1 cup (150g) plain flour
  • 1/2 cup (45g) desiccated coconut
  • 1/2 cup (110g) brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 125g unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup

For the chocolate topping:

  • 150g Swisspip Dark or Milk Chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (optional, for a glossy finish)

How to make chocolate Weetbix slice:

  1. Preheat the oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease and line a 20x30cm slice tin with baking paper, ensuring there's an overhang for easy removal.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed weetbix, plain flour, desiccated coconut, brown sugar, and cocoa powder. Stir until evenly mixed.
  3. Add the wet ingredients:

    • Pour the melted butter and golden syrup into the dry mixture. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined and can be pressed together.
  1. Press into the tin:

    • Spread the mixture into the prepared slice tin, pressing it down firmly to create an even base.
  1. Bake the slice:

    • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the slice is firm and the edges are slightly golden. Allow the slice to cool completely in the tin.
  1. Make the chocolate topping:

    • Melt the Swisspip Dark or Milk Chocolate in a heatproof bowl in the microwave (in 30-second bursts, stirring in between) or over a saucepan of simmering water. For a glossy finish, stir in 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
  1. Top the slice:

    • Once the slice has cooled, pour the melted chocolate over the top and spread it evenly with a spatula.
  1. Set and slice:

    • Let the chocolate set at room temperature or in the fridge. Once set, use the baking paper overhang to lift the slice out of the tin. Place on a cutting board and cut into squares or bars.
  1. Serve and enjoy:

    • Your easy chocolate Weetbix Slice is ready to enjoy! Perfect for serving with a cup of tea or as a quick afternoon snack.

Storage Tips:

  • Store the chocolate Weetbix Slice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. You can also freeze it for up to a month for longer storage.
