Baileys Chocolate No Bake Slice
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 0 minutes
Serves: 10
For base:
-
300g/10.6ozs. plain cookies
-
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
-
35g/1.2ozs. desiccated coconut
-
150g/5ozs. melted butter
-
100g/3.5ozs. sweetened condensed milk
-
50ml/1.7flozs Baileys
-
Pinch of salt
For filling:
-
500g/1.1lbs icing or powdered sugar
-
3-5 tablespoons Baileys Irish Cream
-
For topping:
-
175g/6ozs. dark chocolate
-
30g/1oz. coconut oil
Step 1 - Line a 20x20cm square tin with parchment on the base and sides. Process the cookies, cocoa and coconut in a food processor until it becomes like fine breadcrumbs. Add the butter, condensed milk, Baileys and salt and process to combine. Press into the tin and smooth over with an angled spatula. Place in the freezer to firm up while you do the filling.
Step 2 - Sift the icing sugar (I put it in a food processor) until there are no lumps. Add the Baileys (try adding 3 tablespoons and then add the additional ones if necessary. Spread over the base and allow to set completely.
Step 3 - Melt the chocolate and coconut oil and mix until smooth. Spread over the filling and allow to set. After the chocolate is starting to set, you can use a knife to mark cutting the slice to make it easier to cut. To cut up use a hot knife-I usually have a large glass of hot water and some paper towels and then slice up.
