RhiChiChi; you could always make a cake recipe and pour it into a slice tin, then ice. Yes its a cake, but when I bake 'cakes' like that, the Man calls them slices. It's almost a slice! Most real slice recipes seem to be quite high fat with the butter and crumb base. I am sure I came across a low-fat one recently, but I apologise, I just cannot remember it.
I don't know if I am able to partake this time. Am in the midst of packing to move house! I don't even know if I will get the opportunity to bake a red velvet cake/cupcakes with french cream icing for my head chef! (Can you believe, he has never heard of this cooked icing?!? He sounded very impressed and interested when I explained it to him at work on Saturday, even asked me for the recipe!). Sorry, hijacking!
RhiChiChi - I'd love a low fat, low sugar recipe too!
I think I'll go savoury and do a zucchini slice though cos I just made berry muffins (recipe is on the weet-bix website, awesome and pretty healthy too!). Still trying to work out who to share with though...
Netix - Thanks for your suggestion! I'll consider doing this if I can't find one. Good point about the sugar/fat content to make a 'slice'
JLeigh29 - I will scan the internet and see if I can find something & if I do I will post here for you. I dislike making a recipe to share prior to trying it myself. I have done so in the past & it didn't work out very well
*Lisa I think that the recipe I have must be the same as yours. But here goes!
Passionfruit Slice
Melted butter, to grease
(1 cup) self-raising flour
(1 cup) desiccated coconut
(1/2 cup) caster sugar
100g butter, melted
1 x 395g can sweetened condensed milk
125ml (1/2 cup) fresh lemon juice
2 tbs passionfruit pulp (but I have brought those little cans of Passionfruit Pulp before and they are just as great. But I usually put in about double the amount to what is suggested).
Preheat oven to 180°C. Brush a 16 x 26cm (base measurement) slab pan with melted butter to lightly grease. Line the base and 2 long sides with non-stick baking paper, allowing the sides to overhang.
Use a wooden spoon to combine the flour, coconut, sugar and butter in a large bowl. Use your hands to bring the dough together in the bowl. Transfer to the prepared pan. Use a metal spoon to press firmly over the base. Bake for 12 minutes or until light golden. Set aside to cool.
Reduce oven temperature to 150°C.Use a balloon whisk to whisk together the condensed milk, lemon juice and passionfruit pulp in a large bowl until smooth and well combined. Pour into the pan and spread evenly over the base. Bake in oven for 15 minutes until just firm to the touch. Set aside to cool completely. Cut into slices to serve.
It does end up having a very cheesecakey taste, but it is yummy. Good luck I hope you enjoy.
I made the mars-bar slice and O M G It is totally to die for!!! (not literally, lol)
I only made it today though and gave it to DF to share with his work mates. (They all had to go into work sat and sun, doing a 75+ hour week, so I felt bad for them)
DF is sooo funny though! He asked if he can just leave the slice at home and eat it all by himself! Duuuude!! It's called Bake and SHARE Day!! Not Bake and eat-all-by-yourself- day!! Haha, he is so cute. Nice try my friend. Nice try.
