How to Make Weetbix Based Chocolate Slice
- **Prepare the Base:** Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a medium bowl, crush 150g Weetbix biscuits into crumbs.
- Add 1/2 cup plain flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder to the weetbix crumbs. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
- Pour in 100g melted butter and mix thoroughly until a crumbly dough forms.
- Grease a lamington/slice tin (approximately 20x30cm). Press the weetbix mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared tin.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- **Make the Icing:** While the base is baking, prepare the icing.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups icing sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder.
- Add 50g butter, cut into small pieces, to the icing mixture.
- Gradually add boiling water, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating constantly with a table knife until a smooth, pourable icing forms. Add more icing sugar if too runny, or more boiling water if too thick.
- Once the base is baked and slightly cooled, pour the icing evenly over the warm base.
- Sprinkle with 1/4 cup desiccated coconut.
- Let the slice cool completely before cutting into squares.
