Marshmallow Slice

This is a slice the kids will love to eat and make!
Check out the video of Zoe and I making it

Base
3 crushed Weetbix
¾ cup self-raising flour
¾ cup coconut
¼ cup brown sugar
125g melted butter
1 egg

Mix all ingredients together and press into a lined baking dish (19cm x 29cm). Bake in moderate oven for 15 minutes and then allow to cool.

Marshmallow
2 tbsp gelatine
2 cups sugar
1½ cups water
1 tsp Vanilla extract

In a saucepan put the gelatine, sugar and water. Over a low heat stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. When all sugar granules have disappeared bring to a gentle boil and allow it to do so for 7-8 minutes without stirring. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

When it is at room temp add the essence and beat at high speed until it becomes thick, white and double in size. This is when I am thankful for my mixer as I can turn it on and walk away.

Pour the marshmallow over the base and put in the fridge to set. When set, ice with chocolate ganache.

Chocolate Ganache
200 g chocolate
1/2 cup cream

Place both chocolate and cream in a saucepan and stir over medium heat until chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
