Peppermint Slice

Preheat oven to 170C, and prepare a slice pan with baking paper (18x23cm)

Base

• 200 g self raising flour
• 90 g coconut
• 100 g brown sugar
• 1 tbsp cocoa powder
• 185 g butter, melted

Mix ingredients together and press into the slice pan. Bake for 20 minutes and set aside to cool.

The base should still be slightly warm for the next step!

Peppermint filling

• 60 g copha
• 375 g icing sugar
• 3 tbsp milk
• 2 tsp peppermint extract
• green food colouring

Melt copha in the microwave. Stir in in remaining ingredients, and whisk until smooth.

Pour peppermint mixture over the warm slice base, then place in fridge until cold (2 hours).

Chocolate top

• 200 g dark chocolate
• 1 tbsp butter or copha

Melt chocolate and butter together, and pour over the slice. Chill for 30 minutes or until set.

Slice and serve!
