    Delicious, simple slice, crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle.  Yum yum.  Followed ingredients exactly, but baked it for 15 mins only.  Will definitely be baking this again

    Yummy, easy, quick slice. I reduced the sugar to less than half, then added in 100g crushed walnuts and some couverture dark chocolate bits and it was devoured very quickly.

    I made it today with a dollop of honey (dessert spoon sized dollop) instead of sugar, and it works!  I find I need to keep it in the fridge because it makes it less crumbly.  I'll be making this one again.  Thanks for the recipe. tmrc_emoticons.)
