MUM’S CHOCOLATE SLICE

MAKES 12 PIECES

Hands down, the best thing that ever entered my lunchbox as a kid. This recipe is so nostalgic for me. I love the sultanas and the super simple icing. I know it’s not the healthiest snack, but it’s got to be better for you than store-bought biscuits (it definitely tastes a million times better!)
