No Bake Apricot Coconut Slice
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 0 minutes
- 250g/8.8ozs. plain biscuits (shortbread or plain vanilla)
- 300g/10.6ozs. dried apricots, roughly chopped
- 100g/3.5ozs desiccated coconut
- 200g/7ozs. sweetened condensed milk
- 150g/5ozs. butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Pinch of salt
White Chocolate Icing
- 200g/7ozs. white chocolate
- 1 tablespoon/20ml/0.7flozs. coconut oil
Step 1 - Line a 26x16.5 cm/10.4x6.4inch baking tray with at least 1 inch sides with parchment. Process the biscuits until fine in texture and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the apricots, coconut, condensed milk, melted butter, vanilla and salt. Press into the prepared tray and chill.
Step 2 - Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together and then spread over the slice. Refrigerate to set and then slice up into logs or squares.
Note: I used a little bit of shredded coconut because I didn't have quite enough desiccated coconut. I also used a different icing in the picture but I feel like the white chocolate icing suited it better.
