    If you love peanut butter as much as we do, this peanut-butter-packed slice is the perfect sweet indulgence.

    Ingredients

    • 5 Weet-Bix, crushed (85g)
    • 1 cup white self-raising flour (140g)
    • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut (35g)
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 150 g margarine, melted
    • 1 cup caster sugar (200g)
    • 1/3 cup Peanut Butter (90g)
    Icing
    • 1/4 cup Peanut Butter (70g)
    • 1/4 cup icing sugar (35g)
    • 1 Tbs margarine, melted (20g)
    • 1 Tbs boiling water

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Preheat oven to 180°C. Line base and sides of a 20cm x 30cm slice tin with baking paper.
    2. Step 2

      In a large bowl, stir together Weet-Bix, flour, coconut, and salt.
    3. Step 3

      Combine melted margarine, sugar, and peanut butter in a in a pan or heat-proof jug and mix until smooth. Add wet ingredients to dry and stir well.
    4. Step 4

      Immediately transfer base mixture into the prepared tin and smooth surface.
    5. Step 5

      Bake 15 minutes until golden – slice is soft when hot and will firm up as it cools. Cool in tin 20 mins, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
    6. Step 6

      To make icing, combine peanut butter, icing sugar, margarine and hot water in a small bowl. Stir until thick and smooth – it may look split at first, but just keep stirring and it will come together. Spread icing over cooled slice. Cut into 18 pieces.

    Tips

    • Icing will set to the touch at room temperature. Store extra slice in a sealed container in the fridge.
    • Both smooth and crunchy peanut butter will work in this recipe.
