My Blueberry Slice is a tangy, no bake (fridge) lemon slice with dried blueberries and a quick and simple white chocolate topping.
If you like a little zing in your sweet treats, then this blueberry slice recipe is for you! It combines the flavours of fresh lemon and blueberries, plus an extra simple white chocolate topping instead of the more traditional lemon icing that you normally find in a recipe for lemony flavoured slice - all in a no bake (fridge) slice. A total win-win!
The hardest part about making this slice is letting it set in the fridge before you eat it! It's also a great recipe for the kids to help out with - no hot stoves or ovens.
Do you cook a lot with lemons? I do - there are always fresh lemons in my fridge (they keep for ages in there).

My top tips for making this recipe
- As with any no bake slice, one of the advantages is that you don't need a baking tin to make it in. If you don't have a baking tin of the right size, just use something else such a plastic container like tupperware etc.
- The size of the tin/container to set this slice into is the maximum I would use, any larger and the base will be a bit too thin plus there won't be enough chocolate for full coverage. BUT smaller would be fine, the layers will just be a bit thicker.
- You can substitute another plain sweet biscuit for the Marie biscuits.
Slice stuck in the pan?
- Always grease and line you baking tin/pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on each side. This gives you something to grip onto to pull the slice out of the tin.
- Still stuck? Sit the base of the tin/pan in hot water for a few seconds, then give the parchment another tug and it should come straight out.

- 225 g white chocolate
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions
- Grease a line a 20 x 30cm (8 x 12") slice tin, leaving extra parchment overhanging to help you remove the slice from the tin, and set aside.
- Crush biscuits (250 g) into a fine crumb using a food processor (or place them in a plastic bag and give them a bash with a rolling pin), and place into a bowl.
- Then add condensed milk (250 g/¾ cup), melted butter (80 g), lemon juice & zest (from 1 lemon - approx ¼ cup of juice), roughly chopped dried blueberries (70 g/½ cup) and desiccated coconut (45 g/½ cup) to the biscuit crumbs and mix well to combine.
- Press mixture into the lined tin and even out the surface, then set aside.
- Place the white chocolate (225 g) and vegetable oil (2 tbsp) in a small microwave-safe bowl and melt in the microwave in 30 second bursts (mixing with a metal spoon in between bursts) until just melted, then mix well to combine the oil and chocolate.
- Pour the melted white chocolate on top of the lemon biscuit base, tilting to spread evenly. Sprinkle extra coconut on top and place in the fridge for 1-2 hours, or until set.
