Method

Biscuit Base:

1. Grease and line the base and sides of a 20cm x 30cm lamington pan with baking paper ensuring a 3cm overhang on each of the long sides.
2. Melt Copha in a heatproof jug in the microwave for 1 minute. Stir in syrup.
3. Process biscuits and coconut until they form crumbs. Add melted Copha and syrup, and process until combined.
4. Press crumb into the base of prepared pan. Use the back of a metal spoon to smooth surface. Place in the fridge while preparing filling.

Coconut Crackle Filling

1. Place rice bubbles, choc bits, coconut, nougat, sifted icing sugar and cocoa in a large bowl. Stir to combine.
2. Place 200g choc bits in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 – 1½ minutes. Stir until melted and smooth. Spread over base.
3. Add melted Copha mixture to rice bubble mixture and stir quickly until combined evenly. Spread immediately and evenly over wet chocolate layer to cover the biscuit base

Topping

1. Press extra nougat over the top. Melt choc bits in microwave for 1 minute. Place the corner of a sandwich zip lock bag into a tall glass. Fill with melted chocolate. Snip the corner off and chocolate is ready to drizzle over the top.
2. Sprinkle with extra coconut.
3. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set (Mixture also sets standing out of the fridge). Remove from pan. Cut into fingers to serve.

Tips: Store pieces in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 week. Find nougat bars and pieces at supermarkets, buy by weight in the scoop n weigh section. Make this slice for high tea, school fates and as a food gift
