Line a 20cm tin with baking paper over-hanging the sides.
Place the base ingredients into your processor and blend until the mixture is
broken down, well combined and sticking together. Press the mixture firmly
into your prepared tin and set aside.
Place the ingredients for the middle layer into a bowl and gently heat until the
raspberries are soft and the coconut oil has melted. Add this raspberry mix to
your processor and blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Pour
the raspberry mixture over the base and place the slice in the freezer for 30
minutes to set.
Once the raspberry layer has set place the ingredients for the top layer,
excluding the desiccated coconut, into a bowl and mix to combine. Spread the
topping over your slice, sprinkle with the desiccated coconut and return the
slice to the freezer for 20 minutes prior to cutting.
Slice. Serve. Eat and enjoy.
Makes 16 pieces.
note – once cut you can store the slice in the fridge or freezer.
