Chocolate Peanut Butter Slice
This easy peasy no-bake slice is courtesy of Brisbane dietitian Leanne Ward, known as @the_fitness_dietitian, who shared her “famous and favourite recipe” on Instagram. It’s a goodie to make with the kids during the school holidays.
I much prefer dark chocolate but I bet they’ll prefer milk or white chocolate for the topping. A few other variations include smooth or crunchy peanut butter or a nut butter of your choice and maple syrup instead of the honey.
