Chocolate Easter Egg Slice


  • Author: Aimee Ergovic
  • Total Time: 3 hours
  • Yield: 12-16 slices 1x

Description

A truly decadent chocolate easter egg slice that will impress all your friends and family. A rich chocolate crumbly base with a layer of chocolate and chunks of Easter treats on top. Plus, no baking required!


Ingredients

Scale

Base:

  • 400 g Digestive biscuits (can also use Granita or shredded wheatmeal)
  • 250 g butter 
  • 200 g dark chocolate
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut

Topping:

  • 300 g white or Caramilk chocolate
  • To sprinkle on top: mini Creme eggs, mini Oreo eggs, mini Caramello eggs, Maltesers, MnMs speckled eggs

Instructions

  1. Line a small baking tin (~20 cm x 20 cm or 9 in x 9 in) with baking paper.
  2. Crush the biscuits. You can do this by placing them in a large plastic food storage bag and crushing with the end of a rolling pin, or blitzing in a food processor.
  3. Add the butter and dark chocolate together into a microwave safe bowl or jug. Heat in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring in between each time. You may need to do this a few times. Do not heat the butter and dark chocolate for more than  30 seconds at a time as the chocolate can burn very easily.
  4. Once melted, remove from the microwave. Add the biscuit crumbs, brown sugar and desiccated coconut to the chocolate butter mixture. Mix until well combined. 
  5. Pour the mixture into the lined baking tin and press down with the back of a spoon. Place in the fridge to set for roughly 2 hours.
  6. Once set, remove from the fridge. Get your topping ingredients out and chop the mini eggs in half so their contents are exposed. Set aside.
  7. Then, melt the white or Caramilk chocolate by placing in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring in between until all the chocolate is melted.
  8. Pour the melted white chocolate over the base and sprinkle the topping ingredients all over. You will have to do this quick  before the white chocolate sets hard.
  9. Place in the fridge for another ~30 mins so the white chocolate can set hard. Then remove the slice from the baking tin and place onto a chopping board. Using a large knife, chop into 12-16 squares and enjoy!
