Notes
Recipe NotesGolden syrup substitutions - you can replace the golden syrup with corn syrup, honey or maple syrup. Adding a little mild vegetable or coconut oil to the milk chocolate - you can use either, whichever you prefer, makes the chocolate topping much easier to cut.More hints to avoid the chocolate from cracking when cutting - take the slice out of the fridge 30 minutes before cutting to allow the chocolate to soften slightly. Use a small serrated knife to cut through the chocolate layer and then through the base. See my tips for cutting slices perfectly.Setting time - Leave in the fridge to set for a minimum of 3 hours (overnight is even better). Storing - Licorice Allsort Slice can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
