Chocolate slice
« on: June 20, 2015, 08:37:08 am »
This recipe is converted from a W.W. small book called Chocolate Classics and was perfect for our mini tin challenge.  Ingredient list easy too, most of us would have all ingredients on hand for this one.

Preheat oven to 160o fan forced and grease a mini loaf tin well.  I used cake release.
 
Ingredients
125g cubed butter
1 egg, lightly beaten
200 g dark brown sugar (original recipe calls for light but dark was all I had)
1 tsp vanilla extract
75 g plain flour
35 g Self raising flour
2 tbspns cocoa powder
45 g desiccated coconut
Extra coconut for topping

Icing
10g butter
6 tsp hot water
160 g icing sugar
2 tbspns cocoa powder

Method

Melt butter 2 mins/100o/speed 1.

Add egg, vanilla and sugar to the melted butter and mix 20 sec/speed 4.

Add flours, cocoa powder and coconut and knead 10 seconds, scrape down sides and knead a further 10 seconds.

Fill each hole with 1 heaped tablespoon of the mixture and bake 22 mins in the middle of the oven.

Remove from oven and immediately spread 1 teaspoon of the icing over the top. Sprinkle with extra coconut and cool in pan before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.


Icing
Melt butter 1 min/100o/speed 1.
Add the hot water, icing sugar and cocoa powder.
Mix 30 sec/speed 3

My mouth is watering.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
