No-bake and so simple… this Clinkers Slice recipe really is the best thing ever! This is one of the most popular recipes on the website!!
Clinkers Slice is hands-down one of the most amazing things you will ever eat. I promise! Usually I just nibble away on the bag of Clinkers, trying to guess what colour the next one will be (yes, I’m clearly a super interesting person… not!). The only bad thing about this slice is it takes the fun out of guessing the Clinkers colours – but I promise that is the ONLY bad thing!
This slice is completely no-bake so it will be ready in no time at all. In fact, if you need a last minute slice, then this one is perfect! Out of all the recipes on Bake Play Smile, this is by far one of the most popular. And why wouldn’t it be? It’s easy and it tastes amazing… sounds pretty fab, right!?
Well don’t take my word for it, make it yourself and see what you think. I promise you that you’ll have a brand new favourite recipe!
On a side note, the pink Clinkers are by far my favourite. How about you?
I hope you enjoy my Clinkers Slice recipe!
Clinkers Slice!
Ingredients
- 1 250 g packet Clinkers a good tip is to buy the 300g bag and eat a few while you make it
- 1 250 g packet plain sweet biscuits Marie, Malt O Milk etc
- 125 g butter
- 1 cup condensed milk nearly a whole tin - but not quite!
- 180 g block milk chocolate
Instructions
-
Line a slice tin with baking paper and set aside.
-
Crush the clinkers and biscuits in a food processor and place in a bowl.
-
Melt the butter and condensed milk in a saucepan on low heat until melted and mixed together well.
-
Pour the melted butter/condensed milk mixture over the crushed biscuits and clinkers.
-
Stir to combine (don't worry if the mixture seems a little bit wet).
-
Place into the slice tray and press the mixture down very firmly.
-
Melt the chocolate in the microwave or on a double boiler and spread evenly over the slice.
-
Place in the fridge for at least two hours (preferably overnight).
-
Take the slice out of the fridge and leave for 20 minutes before slicing (this way your chocolate will be less likely to crack).
-
Cut the slice into squares.
-
This slice will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (but it won't last that long anyway!)

Yum! Looks good, and how don’t the colours look great, too. Thanks for sharing – and whatever happened to malt-o biscuits? Clearly they’re still around but I can’t say I’ve eaten one since I was a kid. Oh dear – now I feel like biscuits!
Oh Leanne you so need to go buy a pack! They are so good! Sometimes I put butter on my malt-o-milk biscuits… very yum! xx
Can you freeze this?
I personally haven’t but I know people who have!
I am definitely going to give this one a try. I love the no bake idea and I am sure this would be a great one to do with my daughter. She loves cooking! I will report back as to how I go!
It would be perfect for a kid-friendly recipe! Enjoy! xx
Non bake slice appeals to me because I’m lazy – you forgot that part…;) Will it still work if I eat the clinkers?
Haha nice one Lydia! I vote that you just buy 2 bags of Clinkers… just to be safe! xx
This looks like another delish one to make for Xmas day. The kids will love the colourful pieces inside 🙂
Thanks Renee! Perfect Christmas food… so quick and easy so more time for fun Christmas day stuff! 🙂
OMG – I love this so much!! Clinkers are one of my personal favourite lollies & to add them to a slice like this – well, that’s just magic!!
I think this will end up on my list of treats to bring to our family Christmas gatherings!! YUMMO!! 🙂
So good! Great idea! Hope you have a lovely Christmas. 🙂
Ooooh…thankyou for sharing this. A girlfriend was telling me about this at Woolies the other day, she rattled off all the ingredients but of course it went in one ear and out the other. I LOVE clinkers, will definitely be making this weekend! 🙂
Wow that’s such a coincidence! Hope you enjoy it Jaz!
I don’t even need to try this to know that this is my new favourite recipe! YUM! 🙂
Thanks Meg! Hope you like it! xx
My fave part of this recipe is the tip about buying the 300g bag 😉 I’ll give this one a go next week as it sounds very similar to the Lolly Cake we used to have in NZ when I was growing up.
Hehe thanks Emma! I’m just a realist and know that I’ll definitely eat some! xx
This is a scary recipe for me! I happen to love all of those ingredients and there’s no way they would make it into a slice for me! As soon as a pack of clinkers is within clinky distance – I’m a gonner!
Oh. Yum.
Guess what I’m buying tomorrow, and making tomorrow night?!?!
I love clinkers. When my husband and I were dating we would buy packets and guess our colours. I nearly always got it right, which is totally weird!
This is seriously one of my fave recipes! Love it so much! Hmm maybe you have psychic Clinkers abilities! xx
OMG YUM!!! I love Clinkers! When I was a kid I would sometimes try to take these covert tiny little nibbles to see what colour it was and if it wasn’t pink I would put it back and try again! I was a shocker!
I am totally trying this recipe as I am a bandit for a no-bake slice. My only problem is I don’t have a processor so not sure how I will crush those hard little clinkers but that won’t stop, I’ll figure something out!
My fave is pink too!!!! I think you would be fine to pop the biscuits and clinkers into sealed glad bags and whack, whack, whack with a rolling pin or something very heavy! Good luck! xxx
I knew this was your recipe before clicking on the link 🙂 Thanks Lucy, looks yummy and best of all easy. Cheers, Tanya
Haha did you know from the copious amounts of chocolate involved? xx 🙂
Are you serious? This would be amazing, looks great. Just enough left in the can of condensed milk, coz a straight spoonful of that in the mouth, never goes astray 😉 Good idea to get a bigger bag of clinkers 🙂
Hehe oh yes I totally agree about the condensed milk… why does it taste so good from the can? xx
YAY you made it – I was hoping this would appear soon – I might pull this out for Xmas day, because yes even I can do it! Em x
Haha I did Emily! Absolutely! Perfect for Christmas as it’s so quick! Hope you love it xx
Oh, yeeesssss!!! This looks so delicious and festive! I was looking for a Christmas Day dessert! This might be it! x
Hey Grace! Your family would love this… and it’s so quick that you can kick back and actually enjoy Christmas with everyone! xx
These look delicious! And come up so great in a picture. Very festive looking too with the colours.
Thanks Krissie! Xx
My Aunt makes Clinker slice all the time and oh my gosh its just the most delicious thing ever! I’m yet to ask her for the recipe, so now I’ll bookmark yours instead – so thanks!! (Came across from from your Fabulous Foodie Fridays linkup)…
Oh this is definitely one of my faves and it’s always in the top 5 recipes on my blog too! Glad you found it!! xx
My mum makes this. So darn good! She’s always changing up the clinkers with different options. Turkish delight & picnic was the latest. Amazing!
Yum!!! I love a quick easy slice. Love the idea of using clinkers. MMMmmm think it might be the next plate I take to the next morning tea I go to! Love it.
Thanks Danielle – you will totally love it! It’s seriously the easiest and yummiest thing ever!
Have purchased the clinkers tonight, took your advice and purchased 300g bag. My mum saw the link I posted to your slice on my FB page recently and she said I really think you should make that slice and when you do I’ll have some! My son is making his first holy communion on Sunday and we have been asked to take a plate, guess what I’m taking? Mum will be happy!
Perfect!! Haha I like your mums thinking! 🙂 xx
Thank you for sharing. Mum and I always used to eat this when we visited NZ but it is getting harder and harder to come across it. So delicious!
Is it possible to substitute the condensed milk for cream?
Hi Kirsten, I really recommend the condensed milk as the sticky sweetness is what will bind this slice together so well. xx
Completed the Clinker Slice today! Very happy with the end result overall! http://foreverspringtime.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/no-bake-clinkers-slice.html
Thanks again for sharing, as well as the tips for cutting the slice… very important to make it pretty!
Woo hoo! Thanks for sharing!
what are clinkers av never heard of them
Hi Maryanne, they may be an Australian thing. They’re sort of like a hard lolly covered in chocolate. 🙂
thank you am in scotland so does anyone know a substitute for clinkers that a can get here
Hopefully someone will be able to help you out Maryanne!!
thanjs for what looks like a lovely recipe. Do you know a major chain that consistently sells Clinkers? I am having trouble finding them!
Hi Heather, I’ve always bought mine from either Woolworths or Coles. Hope that helps!
Thank you. Definitely not in my Woolies anymore
Will try Coles!
Oh no really!? I bought mine from Woolies just the other day! They’re in a new purple Cadbury pack!
Roughly what size slice tin do you use for this recipe? I like how tall your pieces are :).
Hi Erin, just a standard sized rectangular tin – about 18X32 or 22X32. If you’d like them extra tall, I’d recommend using a 20X20 square tin. 🙂
Just curious if you’ve used any other type of candy/confectionery for this recipe or what others you could recommend? I have my birthday to cater for with no time because of the kids! lol Thanks in advance 🙂
Hi Tina – I would suggest checking out my no bake slices post – there’s lots of quick and easy alternatives there! http://www.bakeplaysmile.com/easy-no-bake-bars-slices/
Awesome thanks!
Hi can rice bubbles be used instead of plain biscuits ? Or will the slice not be as good ? Thanks
Hmmm I don’t think the base would be firm enough!!
Hi! Do u know if u can freeze this???
Yes you can xx
