Adams Mums Jelly Slice Recipes

JELLY SLICE

Steps:

• Prepare 25 x 25 slice tin with baking paper and set aside - I lightly spray my tin first so paper sticks!
• Make up both jellies with 3 cups boiling water and pop into fridge to cool
• Blitz biscuits in food processor (or by hand if need be)
• Combine melted butter and chopped nuts or lemon zest if using (I did not but original recipe stated optional)
• Tip into slice tin and firmly press down until evenly spread.
• Pop into the fridge to chill for 30 minutes
• In a medium bowl add gelatine and 1/2 cup boiling water and mix well until all gelatine dissolved.
• Add to this the condensed milk and lemon and zest if using and mix well.
• Pour over the chilled base and set aside in the fridge for 30-40 minutes until completely chilled and setting
• Once jelly has cooled but not set pour over the milky layer and pop in the fridge until the jelly has set - I poured the jelly over the back of a spoon so as to not disturb white layer.
• Once set - remove from fridge for 20-30 minutes and then run your large sharp knife under hot water - then dry - then slice the edges off the slice first.
• Using whole long knife (heating & drying as need be between slices) cut down into the square and apply pressure to cut through biscuit layer. Then slice into squares or smaller pieces.
• Keep the slice in an airtight container in the fridge
