No-Bake Apricot and Marshmallow Slice
This recipe is certainly not 'health food' but it is very quick and easy to make for a treat.
I made a batch of these on the weekend when my son had to take a plate of sweet food to a shared event. The original recipe for this slice was given to me years ago by a friend. I have adapted it slightly for the Thermomix (you can also roll the mix into balls for a different take on truffles) Makes 20 slices
