This recipe has been passed down from one of my grandparent's friends to at last me and I can understand why it has not been forgotten. The recipe is really easily made and one of the best slices I have tasted. It has very few ingredients but still can entice anyone, even a chocolate lover will enjoy this just as much as plain chocolate! I do warn any taste tester of this particular slice, it is very addictive!!! This is the perfect slice for sudden afternoon tea arrangements with friends or if you receive an unexpected visitor. Once you serve this, I promise that your friends will visit you more often and demand the secret to this success!
