I love ginger crunch or lemon & coconut slice but most slices I find far too sweet especially the ones you buy from bakeries - just taste sweet rather than having any individual flavour to them, very generic

Double Chocolate Brownies
200 grams butter 1 1/2 cups white sugar 3 eggs 1 cup white flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 65 grams cocoa 1 block Cadbury Chocolate
Melt butter in pot as butter is starting to melt add sugar (you want the sugar to be melted and once it starts to boil take off ring) Cool for a minute or two and then add beaten eggs and beat fast(you don't want to cook eggs) Add cocoa and flour and baking powder and mix Put 1/2 the mixture into a baking paper lined tin Break up a block of Cadbury Chocolate into pieces and dot on top of the 1/2 mixture Put rest of mixture on top covering all the chocolate pieces Bake for 35- 45 minutes at 160 c (depending in your oven mine takes 45 mins plus) take out brownie and test with a cake pin or knife to make sure brownie is cooked if not put in for longer Cool cut into pieces and enjoy

My favourite is because it is so quick and easy and can also be used as a base to a peppermint slice. Chocolate Coconut Slice.

I really like the Takaka Oaty Ginger Slice that's been featured here many times in the past.

Me too - but I put sunflower and pumpkin seeds in the base and crystallized ginger in the icing. Just a few changes I have made for myself over the years.

I made Texas slice - I got the recipe off of here, it went down very well with all the work mates, expensive to make but worth it

Yep that was the one, it did make a tin full - but it didn't last very long as got scoffed by the work mates
