Chocolate Rice Bubble Slice with Peppermint Icing

We make a lot of homemade chocolates and occasionally we stuff up the chocolate and can't use it for the moulds ... but it still makes a perfect slice!! This slice is a simple combination of ingredients which I had handy, topped with a refreshing white chocolate and peppermint icing.

Ingredients

• 2 cups of ricebubbles
• 1/2 cup of coconut
• 100 grams dark chocolate
• 1/2 cup cocoa

Icing Ingredients

• 100 grams white chocolate
• 50 grams butter
• 1/2 cup of icing sugar
• 2 to 5 drops of peppermint essence
• A decoration such as grated chocolate, sprinkles, edible fairy dust, shredded coconut, or even crushed rice bubbles

Method

• Melt chocolate and butter, beat with a whisk until smooth
• Add other ingredients and mix in a large bowl
• Press into a flat lamington or slice pan or shallow rectangular dish, lined with baking paper, until it is compact and firm. Use a flat spatula to press down all over the surface so it is even.
• Refrigerate for about an hour
• Melt white chocolate and butter, whisk until smooth
• Add icing sugar, mix until smooth
• Spread mixture over the slice
• Top with grated chocolate or your decoration of choice
• Return to fridge for about an hour
• Remove, peel off baking paper and slice into small pieces to serve as a treat or with an afternoon coffee
