JELLY SLICE

Line the base and sides of a slice tin ( 25 x 16 cm ), make sure you leave plenty excess around the sides .
Crush 200 gm of plain biscuits and crush them until they resemble fine bread crumbs .
Melt 225 gm of melted butter and add to the biscuit crumb .
Pour the mixture into the lined pan and press down with back of a metal spoon .
Place in the fridge to chill and set .
Begin to prepare the filling .
Add 2 and 1/2 tsp of powdered gelatine to 3/4 cup of boiling water and stir until dissolved .
Place 1 x 395 gm can of condensed milk in a separate bowl and whisk.
While whisking pour in the dissolved gelatine mixture and the juice of 2 lemons .
Continue to whisk until mixture is smooth and combined .
Remove the set biscuit base from the fridge and pour over the condensed milk mixture .
Place the tray back until just set  in the fridge .( 35 minutes ).
While the slice is setting , make your jelly ( your choice of colour / flavour ) as per packet instructions adding an extra tsp of powdered gelatine .
Allow jelly to cool to room temperature .
Remove the slice from the fridge and carefully pour the jelly over the slice and place back in the fridge to completely set 6 - 8 hours .
Remove the slice and use a warm knife blade to cut into squares .
