The recipe just states a packet of crushed biscuits. I put mine in the food processor and crushed to a fine crumb. But from the video it looks like the biscuits are in big chunks. Do you think this might be the reason that my slice did not set? If so, perhaps you should amend the recipe, as I think someone else had a query below as to how crushed the biscuits should be.CHELSEA: Hi there, how much you crush the biscuits is personal preference and shouldn't affect whether the slice sets or not (unless you were to not crush them much at all). Using table spread instead of butter is much more likely to have an impact. Table spreads tend to be made from vegetable oils and have a higher water content than butter. Because of these different properties, they are not a reliable substitute for butter in many baking recipes., approved=true, user_name=Anne-Marie, hs_createdate=1702249862850, rating_new__1_5_=1, id=11175557636}, {comment_text=Followed the recipe exactly but unfortunately it did not set what so ever.

Method

Grease a 20cm x 30cm sponge roll tin and line with baking paper.
In a medium-large saucepan heat the Tararua Butter, Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar and condensed milk until the butter has melted. Do not boil.
Remove from the heat and add chopped apricots and crushed biscuits. Mix well. Press mixture into the prepared tin. Refrigerate while you make the icing.

Lemon Icing
Beat Tararua Butter until pale and fluffy. Add Chelsea Icing Sugar and lemon zest, then beat in sufficient lemon juice and hot water so that you have a light, fluffy mixture. Spread over the slice and sprinkle with coconut. Set in refrigerator before cutting into squares.
