Almond Slices

Almond Slices

What makes the recipe really nice is the addition of Special K, it adds a nice texture to the dish. Also ussing milk powder instead of milk gives the dish a very filling experience meaning you will be satisfied (or maybe not...they can become addictive!)




Ingredients

3 Eggs (beaten together)
90g Ground Almonds
180g Milk Powder

200g Caster Sugar
100g Butter (Make sure its melted!)
40g Special K or Your preferable cereal (crushing it into pieces makes it easier to work with)
Tin of Glace Cherries
Handful of Flaked Almonds

Icing Sugar




1. Pre-heat oven to 180C/Gas Mark 4 and line a 7-9" square cake tin
Put ground almonds, milk powder, cereal and sugar in a bowl. Then add the melted butter and beat well until the mix is slightly moist all over.

2. Add eggs all in one go (don't worry your mix wont curdle!) and beat until it is smooth. (If it is not smooth just add 25ml of milk to loosen the mixture up). Then pour mix into the cake tin and prinkle with the flaked almonds. Put in oven for 40-45 mins or until golden brown all over.

3. Once out of oven leave to cool. While cooling slice the glace cherries into halves. Once the 'big cake slice' has cooled, slice into long strips  and add three glace cherries ontop. Dust with icing sugar.


There you have it! A simple recipe in less than three steps! I hope these turn out nice for you as well, you can spread rasberry jam ontop of your indivual slice for a fruitier flavour!

Coming up... A classic lemon meringue pie in less than an hour and the best bananna-chocolate smoothie you have ever tastes with a secret ingredient!
