CHOCOLATE ALMOND SLICE

Let me start by saying this is kind of what I am famous for. It’s a crowd pleaser and is almost always gobbled up in no time. It’s totes adorable and looks impressive with all those lovely chocolaty chunks showing through and then a sumptuous drizzle of white chocolate that makes it all posh and fancy. I always get asked to make this and until now been one of my best kept secrets. 

So it’s kind of a big deal that I’m sharing this with you all.

Feel privileged people.
