Ingredients
- 250 g Chocolate biscuits (crushed)
- 125 g Unsalted butter (melted)
- 100 ml Sweetened condensed milk
- 50 g Desiccated coconut
- 150 g Glacé cherries (halved)
- 200 g Dark chocolate
- 2 tsp Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Line a 20cm x 20cm (8-inch x 8-inch) baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to make it easier to lift the slice out later.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed chocolate biscuits, melted butter, sweetened condensed milk, and desiccated coconut. Stir until the mixture is well combined and forms a sticky base.
Step 3
Fold in the halved glacé cherries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 4
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, using the back of a spoon or your hands to smooth out the surface. Refrigerate the base for 15 minutes to set slightly.
Step 5
Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Add the vegetable oil to the chocolate and mix until glossy and smooth.
Step 6
Pour the melted chocolate over the chilled base, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Tap the dish lightly on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
Step 7
Refrigerate the slice for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate topping has fully set.
Step 8
Once set, lift the slice out of the baking dish using the parchment paper. Use a sharp knife to cut it into 12 even pieces. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for neat edges.
Step 9
Store the slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. Serve chilled and enjoy!
