Instructions

Instructions and steps:

Step 1 Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a 20.5cm x 20.5cm x 4.5cm slice tin with a sheet of baking paper.

Step 2 Melt spread and condensed milk in a small pan over low heat.

Step 3 Crush biscuits with a rolling pin (or in a food processor) until texture resembles breadcrumbs. Combine crushed biscuits with nuts, cereal and chocolate chips in a large bowl; mix well.

Step 4 Add condensed-milk mixture and dates to dry ingredients; stir to combine. Pour mixture into prepared slice tin and cook for 15–20 minutes, or until surface turns golden brown.

Step 5 Leave slice to cool, then place in fridge for 1–2 hours, or until set. Cut slice into 20 pieces and serve.
