What You Need
Let's get baking!
Note: please scroll to the recipe card for the ingredient quantities and full detailed method.
- Turkish Delight chocolate block - I use Cadbury brand Turkish Delight Chocolate but if you can't find that particular brand then you an substitute it with a similar soft Turkish Delight filled chocolate or alternatively you could use plain milk chocolate and extra chopped up Turkish delight (either Fry's or traditional Turkish Delight).
- plain sweet biscuits - I use Arnott's Marie Biscuits in this recipe but any plain, sweet cookies will work perfectly.
- sweetened condensed milk - choose full fat sweetened condensed milk, not the skim version, as it won't set as firmly enough in this recipe.
- butter - either salted or unsalted butter is fine for this recipe.
- desiccated coconut - this is a finely grated, dried coconut that has a coarse powdery texture.
- Turkish Delight bars - I use Fry's Turkish Delight in this recipe but a traditional Turkish Delight would work just as well.
- white chocolate melts - use good quality chocolate melts as they melt easily. I like to use either Cadbury or Nestle brands.
- vegetable oil - it's important to use a neutral tasting oil (such as vegetable oil or coconut oil) in this recipe so as not to effect the taste. The oil helps with swirling the colour through as well as making it easier to cut through the chocolate topping when slicing.
- pink food colouring - use a liquid food colouring (not a powder) in this recipe.

Expert Tips And FAQ
You can substitute the Cadbury block of chocolate with a similar brand substitute of Turkish Delight filled chocolate or you can simply use any milk chocolate block and then add some extra chopped up Turkish Delight - either the Fry's brand or traditional Turkish Delight works well.
I recommend only using full fat sweetened condensed milk for this Turkish Delight slice as it helps the slice to set properly.
Add a small amount of vegetable oil or coconut oil to the chocolate when melting.
Ensure you only add tiny drops of food colouring to the chocolate.
Work quickly - you don't want the chocolate to set before you swirl.
Use a skewer or a knife to swirl the food colouring through the chocolate.
Take the slice out of the fridge for approximately 20 minutes before cutting.
Use a hot and dry knife (dip the knife in hot water and then dry completely) to score the slice.
Once the slice has been scored, press down firmly with the knife to slice all the way through.

Store Turkish Delight Slice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Alternatively, store it in the freezer in an airtight container for up to three months.
