Once cooked I halve it and ice my side only. Just love it.

Yvonne

Very nice but I prefer it with oats instead of cornflakes and only half the sugar (replace with more oats). It only just fills my 17x25cm tin so I would increase the recipe by 50% for a 20x30cm tin.

The best slice I make - according to Master 13 and Miss 12.

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 20cm x 30cm sponge roll tin.

Melt butter and golden syrup in a large pot. Remove from heat and sift flour and baking powder into the pot. Add cornflakes, sugar, coconut and sultanas (optional). Mix well. Press into the lightly greased baking tin. Bake in oven for 20 minutes or until starting to brown. When cold ice with lemon icing.

Icing : Boil kettle. Put icing sugar, butter and lemon juice into a bowl. Add small amounts of boiled water, mixing with a knife, until icing is at desired consistency. Spread over base. Sprinkle with coconut.
