Easy No-Bake Chocolate Walnut Slice

This one’s a must for slice fanatics – the coffee biscuits in the base gives the slice a nice crumbly bottom, before it’s topped with good, old-fashioned cocoa powder, golden syrup and desiccated coconut, then the top is covered in delicious, smooth chocolate. This recipe calls for dark chocolate, but if you prefer the milk variety, it’s fine to swap it.

If you’re feeling fancy, decorate the top of each square with a walnut. If you can wait that long to tuck in!
