My lovely Mum told me about this recipe last week (sourced from here), and I decided to give it a try.
It is a super quick one to whip up, great for storing in the fridge and cutting off a few slices when needed.
Do you remember the Lolly Slice recipe? Well, this one is very similar, only it's a mint version and has no butter in it (hooray!!). If you don't have access to Odd-fellows, try crushing up any type of powdery peppermint, or you could even try candy canes. I think it would be a perfect Christmas treat.
Ingredients
1 x
packet malt biscuits
¾ can condensed milk
20 x crushed odd fellows (use a snap lock back wrapped in a
tea-towel and hammer to crush)
½ cup coconut
Mix together the biscuits, milk and odd
fellows.
Lay out a sheet of tinfoil, sprinkle
generously with coconut, and roll the mixture up into a long tube.
Leave to set
in refrigerator for 24 hours. Slice as required.

ReplyDeleteThis would be sooooooo amazing with candy canes yes yes yes
ReplyDeleteso what are odd fellows?? definitely don't have these in south africa :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of our families fave recipes!
ReplyDeleteIt's a must every year at christmas!
If you cannot find malt biscuits use another biscuit and add a heaped teaspoon of cocoa.
Wow...intriguing. Not sure if I would like it but VERY willing to try! Will let you know!
ReplyDeleteOh wow - that looks delicious! I'm going to add oddfellows to my shopping list right now! Overseas folk will be wondering what the heck oddfellows are won't they - it's such a weird name for a peppermint. Hope you're having a lovely week enjoying the school hols.
ReplyDeleteYum Yum, just pinned it for future reference.... love recipes without butter, helps me save some pennies :)
ReplyDeleteI wonder if anyone has any suggestions for substituting the condensed milk? For something non-dairy? Then I could make it for the tribe...
ReplyDeleteSammy I don't know much about dairy free. But can you get a dairy free option for milk powder? If so try the homemade condensed milk and substitute the option for the milk powder in this recipe
