Chewy Nut Slices Recipe
A perfect egg-free sweet treat to include in your Diwali platters this year.
Cooking Time
8-10 minutes
Recipe Ingredients
-
125 g SPAR margarine
-
125 ml SPAR white or brown sugar
-
2 ml almond essence
-
250 g bar pitted dates
-
150 g dried fruit cake mix
-
1 packet SPAR coconut tea biscuits, crushed
Recipe Method
-
Gently heat the margarine, sugar and essence together in a heavy-based saucepan. Add both dried fruits and stir over medium heat until thick and sticky.
-
Stir in the coconut biscuits thoroughly. Turn the mixture onto a cleaned worktop and shape the mixture into 3 x 3 - 4 cm diameter rolls. Roll each one in coconut until evenly coated. Wrap each roll firmly in foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
-
Cut off 1cm slices.
Hints & Tips
Crush the biscuits in your hands, not in a processor or with a rolling pin. The idea is retain texture and not reduce them to crumbs.
Instead of round slices, make squares by pressing the warm mixture into a SPAR Good Living non-stick swiss-roll pan. When firm, cut into squares before coating with coconut.
