What You Need

This slice is so easy to prepare using just 8 ingredients.

Note: Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

• Butter – adds richness and helps to hold the slice together when set. I recommend using real, full-fat butter for best results.

• Golden Syrup – binds the ingredients together and enhances all of the wonderful flavours.

• Snickers – chocolate bars made by Mars. They consist of nougat topped with thick caramel and peanuts that are encased in a layer of milk chocolate. You will need 150 grams (about 3 bars) for the slice. And you can add extra, chopped Snickers to the top of the slice, if you like!

• Rice Bubbles – also called Rice Krispies. They add both crunch and chewiness to the slice. Rice Bubbles are cereal made from puffed, white rice that can be found in supermarkets. If you need the slice to be gluten-free, similar puffed rice products can be found in supermarkets and health food stores.

• Peanuts – add texture and extra peanut flavour. Salted peanuts are a great addition, but unsalted will work too. Chop them so that they incorporate nicely through the slice.

• Caramel sauce – to make the slice extra sweet and chewy. You can use any thick caramel slice from the supermarket (in Australia, Bonne Maman or Nestle caramel sauce works great), or try the best homemade version here!

• Milk chocolate – use a good quality chocolate that you know and love to eat from the packet. Using a good quality chocolate will make all the difference in the final result.

• Coconut oil – a little coconut oil is added to the melted chocolate to make it easier to slice. You can use vegetable oil, if preferred. Make sure the coconut oil or vegetable oil is warmed/melted first, or the chocolate may seize.

Equipment Required

The slice filling is made in a medium saucepan or in the microwave, using a heat-proof, microwave safe bowl. It can also be made in a Thermomix. You will also need a 20cm square slice or baking tin.

Step By Step Instructions

It's as easy as 1,2,3,4 to prepare my sweet Snickers Slice - no baking required!

Note: Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

Step 1 - Make The Snickers Mixture

Melt the butter, two of the Snickers bars and golden syrup in a microwave-safe bowl on 50% power for 3 minutes or until the butter has melted.

Alternatively, melt on low heat in a saucepan. Stirring until smooth.

Step 2 - Mix

Stir in the Rice Bubbles, the third Snickers bar (chopped), the chopped peanuts and caramel sauce.

Mix until well combined.

Step 3 - Press The Mixture Into A Slice Tin

Press mixture firmly into your greased and lined cake pan.

Step 4 - Add The Chocolate Layer

Melt the chocolate in a microwave on 50% power for 3 minutes, or until melted, stirring every 30 seconds with a metal spoon.

Spread over slice and refrigerate until firm (approximately 4 hours).

Remove the slice from the refrigerator 20 minutes before cutting into squares with a warm, sharp serrated knife.

Expert Tips

• If cooking on the stovetop, keep an eye on the mixture in the saucepan and cook over very low heat, so that the mixture does not catch on the bottom or split.
• Add-ins – try sprinkling some peanut M&Ms, Reeses’ peanut butter cups, mini chocolate chips or more chopped Snickers over the top of the melted chocolate layer before chilling.
• Leave the slice at room temperature for 20 minutes, to make slicing easier.
• To slice, run a knife under hot water and dry it before cutting. A hot knife will glide through the chocolate layer much easier and cleaner.
• The butter, golden syrup and Snickers can be melted in the microwave, stovetop or Thermomix, depending on preference.
• For best results, make sure that you use a fresh box of Rice Bubbles/Rice Krispies. Stale Rice Bubbles will not be as crunchy!
• The Snickers will not melt completely, some of the nougat will remain lumpy. This is fine and will add to the chewy texture of the slice.
• Press the mixture into the tin very firmly so that it holds together nicely.
• Allow the baking paper to hang over the edges of the tin slightly, as this will help you to remove the slice from the tin when set.
