How to make Clinkers Slice
Grease a standard 18X28cm rectangular slice tin with baking paper.
Melt the butter and the condensed milk until smooth.
Crush the Clinkers and biscuits and stir through the melted liquid.
Press the mixture into the base of the prepared tin.
Pour over melted chocolate and place into the fridge to set.
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

Hi Maureen, I dont think Clinkers are available in Scotland. Here's the link to show you what they are: https://www.cadbury.com.au/Products/Cadbury-Lollies/Cadbury-Clinkers.aspx
Erin says
Roughly what size slice tin do you use for this recipe? I like how tall your pieces are :).
Bake Play Smile says
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. 🙂

Kirsten says
Is it possible to substitute the condensed milk for cream?
Bake Play Smile says
Hi Kirsten, I really recommend the condensed milk as the sticky sweetness is what will bind this slice together so well. xx
