1 ¼ cups caster sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 egg, lightly beaten
150g dark chocolate, melted
½ teaspoon vegetable oil




METHOD:

2. Combine biscuits, nuts and coconut in large bowl.

3. Place butter, sugar and sifted cocoa in a medium pan; stir over heat until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat; whisk in egg.

4. Pour chocolate mixture over biscuit mixture; mix well. Press into prepared pan. Cover; refrigerate overnight.

Mmmm, that sounds yum! :chef: Do you reckon the nut variety could be changed though, without changing the taste of the slice too much? :confused:

It is yummy, in fact I think I might have to make some within the next few days. Nut variety, yeah I think you could put another sort of nut in there.

I don't like walnuts, so I leave them out. Still tastes mighty fine :D
