Sweet and Salty Chocolate Slice

A little sweet, a little salty, and a lot of chocolate.

Welcome to my newest no bake chocolate slice. This chocolate treat is packed with all the good things in life. It all starts with a sweet chocolate mixture that combines crushed pretzels. sweet cookie crumbs, crispy rice cereal and salty peanuts.

Then we take this Sweet and Salty Chocolate Slice to the new level, with a thick layer of gooey dark chocolate and more salted pretzels, roasted peanuts and chunky chocolate malt balls.

I love slices and bars. I think along with cakes and cookies, they’re one my favourite things to make. Recently I’ve really been getting into baked slices like my Hazelnut Chocolate Slice and my Funfetti White Chocolate Brownies.

But no bake treats will always have a special place in my heart. Sometimes I just don’t want to have to turn my oven on for whatever reason. And that’s when no bake slices are just perfect. They’re super fun and easy to make and they can absolutely satisfy those sweet cravings. I would know, I’m eating a slice of this Sweet and Salty Chocolate Slice right now!

With a chewy, sticky base of chocolate and sweetened condensed milk, this slice is then filled with all kinds of things. Some sweet, some salty, but ALL of them are delicious. All you have to do is mix it all together, throw it in a pan and then wait – the hardest part of course.

The final touch is the fun part. I just love going a little crazy with decorations – remember my Loaded Peanut Butter Oreo Bars? Why stop with a chocolate topping when you can pack LOADS of amazing treats on top? #moreismore

What you end up with is a chocolate slice that’s a little crispy and crunchy with a soft chocolate flavour. Theres crunch from the roasted peanuts and salty pretzels, and smoothness with the extra fudgy chocolate topping.

Sticky, sweet and a little salty, this chocolate slice is, by far, my new favourite. It’s perfect for a party because you can slice up bite-sized pieces and serve it on a cute platter. Guests will love reaching for just one more piece.
