Chocolate Weetbix Slice Recipe

June 16, 2015 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 6 Comments

Chocolate Weetbix and Sultana Slice

 

My kids are both in the middle of first semester exams this week, so I have been baking some treats to help with their study! We love slices and tray bakes as they are so quick and easy to prepare. This week I baked a Chocolate Weetbix Slice which was studded with moist sultanas for extra energy. It was topped with a chocolate icing and a sprinkling of desiccated coconut – so delicious!

Chocolate Weetbix & Sultana Slice

If you would like to make you own, simply follow our easy recipe. Weetbix is a wheat based breakfast cereal that is popular in Australia. The cereal is brick shaped and they can be crushed for this recipe. It is very similar to Weetabix which is available in the UK. Any wholegrain wheat based cereal could be substituted. You will need around 1 cup. This recipe is a variation of our Easy Weetbix Slice.

    I’d love to try this recipe, but I can’t get weetbix in the U.S. Could you tell me about how much 4 crushed weetbix is, so I can try it with a substitution?

      When I lived in Texas the local supermarket sold Weetabix, the UK equivalent. If you can’t find that try any wheat flakes or even Bran Flakes. 4 Weetbix is 80 g (3 oz).
