Cherry Choc Slice Heaven

DELENN APPROVED RECIPE

It was a good friends birthday this week. She is studying to become a teacher so not only did a few colleges and I get together and give her the most awesome prac teacher survival pack ever, I also made her a sweet treat for having to come in and work on her special day. So not only did she get her stationary fix she was also introduce to this amazing Cherry Choc Slice.

I have no idea where I got this recipe from, it could be from a number places. I think most likely the same book I used to make this Choc Lovers Cake  but, I have lent it a friend. This slice was super simple to make and tastes amazing. It is quite rich (esp because I melted 2 blocks over the top of it) but well worth it for a ladies afternoon tea or quick sugar fix.
