What You Need

butternut snap biscuits – also known as cookies. Butternut snap biscuits are a crunchy oat cookie. If you're not familiar with these biscuits, you can use a regular digestive or, in the States, Nilla Wafers.
desiccated coconut – finely ground coconut. You can make your own with shredded coconut if you are unable to locate desiccated in the store.
butter - you can use either salted or unsalted butter for this recipe.
sweetened condensed milk - I recommend using full fat (not skim) sweetened condensed milk.
vanilla extract - or vanilla essence.
milk chocolate – such as milk cooking chocolate or chocolate melts.
coconut oil - this is optional but helps to avoid the chocolate from cracking when cut into pieces.

Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method!

Step 1 – Mix The Biscuit Base

Crush the biscuits until they are similar to breadcrumbs. Place them in a bowl, then add the coconut and set the mixture to the side.

In a separate bowl, melt the butter in the microwave, then stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla.

Pour the butter mixture to the biscuit crumbs and mix until it looks a little like wet sand.

Turn the biscuit mixture into a slice tin and press down firmly.

Step 2 – Make The Chocolate Topping

Melt the coconut oil and chocolate together in the microwave. Pour the melted chocolate over the biscuit base and sprinkle with extra coconut.

Place the slice in the fridge to set.
