Revival: Mars Bar Slice
The Mars Bar Slice has come out of hiding.
Sweet, Chocolate, Chewy and Bubblicious
This #LetsLunch time we are posting about guilty pleasures. What’s yours?
This is a recipe that has been hidden for more than 10 years. It is from my original handwritten recipe book, and is one of those recipes that (over the years) became invisible. I am unsure of its origin, and I haven’t made it in years. But when I do, it conjures up memories and tastes of years gone by. A taste of a particular time in life. Perhaps it was a baby’s playgroup where someone shared the recipe? Perhaps it was from a Tupperware party in the early days of marriage? Perhaps it was from the school fete where some clever mother had made trays and trays?
Whatever it is, it is definitely a guilty pleasure. A very sweet slice with a delicious chewy and light texture. Fun for a special (guilty!) treat.
So let’s give it a huge revival.
Mars Bar slice, welcome back to my grown up kitchen!
INGREDIENTS
3 cups Rice Bubbles (Rice Crispies)
4 tablespoons (75 g) butter
1 heaped tablespoon golden syrup
3 large Mars bars (total weight around 200 g or 7 oz)
150 g (5 oz) bittersweet dark chocolate, melted, for the topping

This is not just any...
It's hamantashen time at our...
A brand new youtube series...
Today on @unitednations HUMAN RIGHTS DAY we stood arm in arm with Jewish women (and a few men!) in Martin Place, Sydney, Australia.
Similar vigils were held in Melbourne and Perth.
Our community calls for the release of all the hostages still being held in Gaza. It is a human rights issue!!
We held a 30 minute silent vigil.
No shouting.
No threats.
No violence.
No intimidation.
No disruption.
The way it should be.

So much to say today and much of it is being said all over socials.
This will do me for starters.
It’s time for a change of government in this country and the election can’t come soon enough.
The damage that has been caused by the action in the U.N by Australia and the inaction in the streets in the face of violent and hate-filled anti-Israel antisemitic protests has caused the situation we are in today.
@albomp and Penny Wong, we’re looking at you.

That looks delicious! I have somehow managed to never have a Mars Bar; I’m thinking I need to rectify that.
So glad you brought out the recipe after all these years. This looks divine. I can just smell the aroma. I have to make this one. It was fun doing #LetsLunch this month with you!

These would kill at any bake sale across the country. Also, I would kill for several of these right now, while I’m catching up in the Breaking Bad k-hole. (NO SPOILERS!!!!)
I make an indulgent hot chocolate with melted candy bars and I’ll definitely have to give this a try with cereal, too. And I love that Rice Krispies are Rice Bubbles down under!
Rice Crispy treats with a twist. I never thought of using Mars Bars. What a good idea!! Sometimes I used Peanut Butter.
it was delicous
