How to Make Cherry Slice

  1. **Prepare the base:** Grease and line a 9x13 inch baking tin with parchment paper.
  2. **Make the base:** In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups digestive biscuits (crushed), ½ cup melted butter, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Mix until well combined.
  3. **Press into tin:** Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared tin.
  4. **Bake the base:** Bake for 15 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
  5. **Cool the base:** Let the base cool completely.
  6. **Prepare the cherry filling:** In a separate bowl, combine 1 (15 ounce) can cherry pie filling, ½ cup granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Mix well.
  7. **Add filling to base:** Spread the cherry filling evenly over the cooled base.
  8. **Bake the filling:** Bake for another 15 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
  9. **Cool the filling:** Let the cherry layer cool completely.
  10. **Make the chocolate topping:** In a saucepan over low heat, melt 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons butter, stirring constantly until smooth and glossy.
  11. **Pour over slice:** Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the cooled cherry layer.
  12. **Chill and serve:** Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the chocolate to set before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
