Chocolate Fudge Slice

I’ve made this easy update on the classic biscuit slice in a round cake tin and cut it into wedges for a morning or afternoon tea treat, but you could make it in a swiss roll tin if you want to cut it into squares for lunchboxes.

Cook time:: 20 mins
Makes:: about 20 pieces

220g butter
2 eggs, lightly whisked
¼ cup honey
¼ cup golden syrup
3 tbsp good-quality cocoa, sifted
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 x 250g packets plain sweet biscuits, such as super wine, crushed to a coarse crumb (leave some small chunks)
½ cup chopped walnuts and/or sultanas (optional)

Line a 20cm-diameter loose-bottom round cake tin with baking paper.

Melt the butter in a pot. Whisk in the eggs, honey, golden syrup, cocoa and vanilla. Slowly bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat as the mixture comes up to the boil and add the crushed biscuits and nuts or sultanas, if using. Mix until well combined and press into the prepared cake tin. Chill and cut into thin wedges when firm. Store in an airtight container in a cool place for up to a week.

Tip

It can also be made in different flavours – leave out the cocoa and use lemon juice and zest and some coconut, and ice with a lemony icing. The butter is what makes it set.
