no bake cranberry slice

Over the weekend I reorganised some of the shelves in my pantry after finding a couple of bothersome moths – I’ll share some info on how to get rid of them naturally next week. During the process I found a selection of uncontaminated cereal, seeds, and cranberries that were just asking to be made into a slice.

I remembered we had a delicious slice recipe on our blog and thought I’d share it again as there’s no baking required. This recipe is quick, easy and very moreish.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp Vanilla Essence

150g Butter or plant based spread

100g Coconut Oil

4 Tbs Golden Syrup (or less, up to you)

4 Tbs Cocoa Powder

3/4 Cup Cranberries (or other dried fruit)

1/2 Cup Desiccated Coconut

3 Cups Leftover Cereal (mine was a mix of gluten free rice bubbles, corn flakes, oats and seeds)

200g Chocolate Melts

Directions 

Line a slice tin with baking paper. Heat the vanilla essence, butter, coconut oil and golden syrup in a saucepan until the butter has melted.

Add the left over cereal, coconut, cocoa and cranberries and stir well until combined. Place into the slice tin and press down well to form the base.

Put the chocolate melts into a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water to melt, stir until smooth but don’t overcook, spread over the slice until coated.

Leave to set for at least an hour, then cut with a warmed knife into slices and store in a sealed container.
