Great use for stale weetbix! I would use less sugar and butter in the base as it came out so sweet and buttery, defintely baking paper to line the tray. I almost wondered if some sultanas would work in this too! Easy to make.

It's very simple and easy to make I would recommend it to anyone who wants a quick easy treat to eat!

Method

Preheat oven to 180°C fan bake. Line a slice tin (approximately 18cm x 28cm) with baking paper.

Place Weetbix, flour, Chelsea White Sugar, cocoa powder and baking powder in a large bowl. Mix to combine, then make a well in the centre. Add the melted butter and vanilla essence. Mix together, then press into prepared tin.

Bake for 10 minutes, until slice is cooked but still soft to touch in the centre. Ice while hot.

Icing
Mix Chelsea Icing Sugar, coconut and cocoa powder together in a bowl. Add butter, then gradually add enough hot water to melt butter, blending to form a spreadable icing.

Spread over slice while hot and decorate with extra coconut. Cut into squares once cooled a little.

Additional tips

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Frequently asked questions

I don’t like coconut, can I leave it out of Weetbix slice?

Yes, this slice still works without coconut (you may need to reduce the quantity of water in the icing slightly).

Can I make Weetbix slice gluten free?

Yes! Use gluten-free Weetbix and swap the flour for gluten-free flour.

Can I freeze Weetbix slice?

Yes, this slice freezes well. Wrap individual portions in clingfilm and freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Great for adding to school lunchboxes!

What other ingredients can I add to Weetbix Slice?

Try adding dried fruit to the base - sultanas, cranberries or chopped dried apricots all work well. For an extra crunchy topping, decorate with toasted chopped walnuts or sliced almonds instead of coconut.
