Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 250 g Marie biscuits
  • 3 limes - juice and zest approx ⅓ cup of juice
  • 90 g butter melted
  • 90 g desiccated coconut 1 cup
  • 200 g condensed milk

Frosting Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon pomegranate juice I used fresh (see my notes)
  • 300 g icing/confectioners sugar 2 cups
  • 70 g butter at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon desiccated coconut for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Grease and line a 20cm x 20cm (8" x 8") baking tin (see my notes).
  • Place the biscuits (250g) into a food processor and process into fine crumbs.
  • Place biscuit crumbs into a large bowl along with condensed milk (200g), desiccated coconut (90g/1 cup), melted butter (90g), lime juice and lime zest (from 3 limes - approx ⅓ cup of juice) then mix well to combine.
  • Press base mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the top.
  • For the frosting, mix together the icing sugar (300g/2 cups) room temperature butter (70g) and pomegranate juice (3 tbsp) until smooth.
  • Spread frosting evenly over the biscuit base. Sprinkle with extra coconut and refrigerate until firm.

Notes

  • The tin I have used is 20cm x 20cm (8" x 8") - a little bigger or smaller would be ok too.
  • If you haven't got a baking tin this size, keep in mind that because this slice is no bake you don't have to limit yourself to a baking tin. Maybe you might have something else the right size such as a plastic container like tupperware etc.
  • If you are using a fresh pomegranate to make the pomegranate juice (I did) then this post will show you an easy way to get the seeds out. Then I just crushed the seeds through a fine sieve to get the juice.
