    Like my Apricot Coconut Slice, Chocolate Crunchie Slice, and Cookie & Cream Slice, this coconut slice requires no baking. That's right – no oven needed to make this sweet treat.

    This rich, decadent no bake coconut slice is made easily with a biscuit (cookie crumb) base and delicious milk chocolate topping.

    Even better, this coconut and chocolate slice recipe only takes about 10 minutes to prepare – leaving you more time for eating!

    Why You’re Going To Love This Recipe

    1. No Bake – This easy recipe doesn't require an oven, so it's perfect for whipping up when you just don't feel like baking!
    2. 10 Minutes To Make – This no bake coconut slice only takes about 10 minutes to put together and then just sets in the fridge.
    3. So Easy – All you need to make this simple yet delicious slice is a handful of easy ingredients (mostly pantry staples!)

    What You Need

    • butternut snap biscuits – also known as cookies. Butternut snap biscuits are a crunchy oat cookie. If you're not familiar with these biscuits, you can use a regular digestive or, in the States, Nilla Wafers.
    • desiccated coconut – finely ground coconut. You can make your own with shredded coconut if you are unable to locate desiccated in the store.
    • butter - you can use either salted or unsalted butter for this recipe.
    • sweetened condensed milk - I recommend using full fat (not skim) sweetened condensed milk.
    • vanilla extract - or vanilla essence.
    • milk chocolate – such as milk cooking chocolate or chocolate melts.
    • coconut oil - this is optional but helps to avoid the chocolate from cracking when cut into pieces.

    How To Make Coconut Slice Without Baking

    Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method!

    Step 1 – Mix The Biscuit Base

    Crush the biscuits until they are similar to breadcrumbs. Place them in a bowl, then add the coconut and set the mixture to the side.

    In a separate bowl, melt the butter in the microwave, then stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla.

    Pour the butter mixture to the biscuit crumbs and mix until it looks a little like wet sand.

    Turn the biscuit mixture into a slice tin and press down firmly.

    Step 2 – Make The Chocolate Topping

    Melt the coconut oil and chocolate together in the microwave. Pour the melted chocolate over the biscuit base and sprinkle with extra coconut.

    Place the slice in the fridge to set.

    Recipe Tips & FAQ

    What kind of store-bought biscuits can I use?

    You can use any biscuit brand for this recipe, in particular ones with a vanilla or "plain" flavor. Some brands would be Arnott's Butternut Snap, McVities Digestive, Nilla Wafers, or Pepperidge Farms Chessman.

    How do I store my no bake coconut slice?

    Your slice will store in the fridge or at room temperature in an airtight container for up to one week, or wrap it tightly (see this post for some tips) and freeze for up to 3 months.

    What variations can I make with this coconut slice?

    You can add a different flavour to your slice by using different biscuits, like lemon-flavoured ones or even gingersnaps.

          Hi Lucy

          Can I use dark baking chocolate?
          Or half dark and half normal baking chocolate?

      Just made this and it was delicious. We only had milk arrowroot biscuits and couldn’t go to get butternut snaps (Coronovirus self-isolation) but I still wanted to capture some of the taste that they would give. I toasted 50g oats then blitzed them with 200g milk arrowroots. I then added half a tablespoon of golden syrup to the butter and milk. It was delicious. I think toasting part of the coconut would have also been a good move.
