Two slices we recently tried and liked

Today is about the story of two slices which we made recently. If I post about them it is also because we liked them!  Both recipes are easy to make. Give them a go!

The roasted almond and chocolate slice

I was looking on the internet for a quick recipe for dessert and I opened a french Facebook group on cooking. There was a post on quick dessert fixes and I found this recipe in the comments.  By placing the slice to cool and set with its chocolate topping in the freezer (must be horizontal!), you can have this for dessert! What really makes this recipe work is roasting the almond meal. It brings in so much flavour!

The recipe is HERE.

The salted chocolate and walnut caramel slice

Barre choco caramelThis is a caramel slice with a more complex toping.  The recipe is adapted from one in the Magazine Delicious.  The toping is dark chocolate with roasted walnuts (that makes them extra-crunchy) and small flakes of salt here and there which explode in your mouth when you don’t expect it!  The recipe is HERE.

And while I was preparing those pages today I almost forgot my Gateau Battu which rose and rose and is now baked and cooling down!
