No Bake Easter Chocolate Slice

Easy No Bake Easter Chocolate Slice with a crunchy shortbread biscuit base and a creamy milk chocolate later, topped with chocolate Easter eggs. 

Every year for Easter, I am choosing a special dessert recipe to make together with my daughter. For years, when she was smaller, I was looking for really easy, basic recipes so she can also be involved in all the steps till the end.

This year I am super happy as she is older, 10 now that we can finally try something else, a little bit more advanced.

How to Make No Bake Chocolate Slice

As no oven is required, in less than 15 minutes you’ll have this chocolate slice ready to be in the fridge cooling.

1. Create the crunchy base for this chocolate slice, by crushing the biscuits in a food processor and mix them with butter.
2. Prepare your tray, lining it up with baking paper.
3. Add biscuit and butter mixture to the tray and distribute evenly, pressing it. Freeze for 5 minutes
4. Meanwhile, over low heating, add in a small saucepan chocolate chips, cream, lemon zest and remaining butter and cook until melted. Add some chopped pistachios into the chocolate mixture. Set aside to cool for a couple of minutes.
5. Pour melted chocolate mixture onto the biscuit base and top with Easter chocolate eggs.
6. Refrigerate overnight preferably and cut into slices to serve

The result? Just have a look….

Unbelievably glossy, rich Easter Chocolate slice ready to be devoured.

One bite and you will be in heaven!

We had so much fun making it and by the time we’ve finished it, there were only a couple of eggs left…Don’t ask!
