What are Clinkers? And where can I buy them?
Clinkers are an iconic Australian candy that is covered in chocolate. They can be bought in any major supermarket in Australia.
If you're overseas, you will be able to buy them through international grocers.
How to cut slices without the chocolate breaking - my top tips!
When it comes to cutting slices into neat little pieces, I am obsessive. It's actually a little bit weird. BUT! If you're anything like me, and love the look of perfectly cut slices and bars, then here's my top tips:
- Use a hot, dry knife to glide easily through the chocolate layer. Run your blade under boiling hot water and dry it completely before slicing. Continue to heat and dry your knife as you go.
- Add a tablespoon or two of coconut oil or vegetable oil to the chocolate when melting. This helps to stop the chocolate from cracking.
- Allow the slice to come to room temperature (or at least take it out of the fridge for 30 minutes) before slicing.
Now that is what a call a super delicious slice! This is absolutely perfect for a lunchbox treat, cake stalls, fetes, birthday parties... seriously anything!
Enjoy! xx

I’ve been making this slice for ages and just substitute the clinkers for peppermint crisps and it’s a huge hit! So easy and always a favourite!
Lucy
YUM!!!
Victoria
Gonna fixate on the cutting of the slice: do you cut it while it’s in the baking tray? Or bring it out of the tray, slice, then re-refrigerate in airtight container?
Lucy
Hi Victoria, I take it out of the tin, leave it for 20-30 mins at room temp (so that the chocolate doesn't crack) and then cut it on a chopping board.
Aimee
Been making this for years using your recipe. Thought it was about time I rate it! Thankyou
Lucy

Hey there,
Just making this recipe and just wanted to let you know that it doesn’t say when to add the crushed Marie biscuits. I know it’s obvious but might be good to add that in the recipe.
Also, do you put the condensed milk in the microwave with the butter or you combine the two after the butter is melted?
Thanks so much…your recipes are great!!!
Lucy
Hi Sim, thanks for your comment. You'll need to scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post (or click jump to recipe). Step 2 gives you info on the condensed milk and Step 3 tells you about the biscuits. The recipe card will always have all of the info you need!
