Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 100 g unsalted butter (melted): The butter adds moisture and helps bind the biscuit crumbs together. Make sure it’s unsalted for the best flavor.
  • 350 g condensed milk: This provides sweetness and creaminess. If looking for a lower sugar option, you can use sweetened coconut milk as a substitute.
  • 100-200 g Easter chocolates (optional): Mix in your favorite Easter chocolates to add delightful surprises within the slice.
  • 200 g milk chocolate: The main topping that creates a luscious, smooth finish. Use good quality chocolate for the best taste.
  • 1-3 tsp vegetable oil: Helps in melting the chocolate smoothly. You could also use coconut oil for a hint of flavor.
  • 50-100 g Easter chocolates: Reserved for decorating on top of the slice; choose a mix of chocolate bunnies or eggs for a festive touch.

How to Make No-Bake Easter Slice

  1. Prepare Biscuit Base: Blitz 450 g of digestives in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs. If you don’t have one, place the biscuits in a large bowl and crush them with a rolling pin.
  2. Mix Ingredients Together: In a large bowl, combine the biscuit crumbs with 100 g of melted unsalted butter and 350 g of condensed milk. Stir until everything is well mixed and resembles a wet sand texture.
  3. Incorporate Easter Chocolates: If you want to add some fun, gently stir in 100-200 g of chopped Easter chocolates at this stage for an extra treat in every bite.
  4. Press into the Tin: Line a 9-inch square baking tin with parchment paper and pour the mixture in, pressing down firmly with the back of a spoon or your hands to create a smooth base.
  5. Melt the Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt 200 g of milk chocolate. If necessary, add 1-3 teaspoons of vegetable oil until the chocolate is smooth and glossy.
  6. Pour the Topping: Carefully pour the melted chocolate over the biscuit base, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
  7. Decorate with Chocolates: Top with 50-100 g of Easter chocolates, pressing them gently into the melted chocolate to secure them in place.
  8. Chill to Set: Place the slice in the refrigerator and allow it to set for 2-4 hours, or overnight if you have the time. This will make cutting much easier and keep everything intact.

Storing & Reheating

Store any leftover No-Bake Easter Slice in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate it, where it can last up to a week. For longer storage, freeze the cut slices, separating them with parchment paper, and consume within 3 months. To refresh after freezing, simply thaw in the fridge overnight for the best texture.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

  • Use quality chocolate for melting—as it makes a noticeable difference in flavor.
  • If you find the mixture too crumbly, just add a bit more melted butter or condensed milk.
  • Always allow the chocolate topping to cool slightly before pouring it onto the base to prevent it from melting through.
  • Experiment with different types of biscuits or chocolates based on your favorite flavors!
  • If slicing becomes difficult, let the slice sit at room temperature for a few minutes before cutting.

This No-Bake Easter Slice is not just about ease, it’s a delightful blend of flavors and textures that will surely charm your taste buds. Feel free to play around with the ingredients, customizing them to match your favorite treats or dietary needs. Happy cooking!
