Mum saved this recipe from the Herald Sun recipe column. It was called Everybody’s Favorite, which is a bit general, so I’ve renamed it Lemon Iced Fruit Slice. It’s pretty easy to make and an great lunchbox filler.

RICE BUBBLE CRUNCH (NO BAKE)
Back in the day, rice bubbles appeared in all sorts of sweet treats. The classic one was Chocolate Crackles, still a favourite at kid’s parties, but there were plenty of other slices and bakes around. This one is an easy, no bake, version.
ALMOND BREAD
The last few times I’ve had Almond Bread, I’ve been really lazy and bought it. It’s not hard to make though and although this recipe says to store it for 5 days before cutting it, I don’t think it needs that long and really 5 days is way too long to wait to eat it.
RASPBERRY SLICE
I haven’t made this slice for ages. It used to be one I’d make fairly often because it tastes great and is pretty quick and easy to make. It’s was a great one to throw in the oven when I already had the oven on to cooking something else.
APRICOT ALMOND BREAD
What could be better with a cup of coffee than a couple of slices of almond bread? Almond bread with apricots and pistachios perhaps!!! It’s easy to make and lasts a week stored in an airtight container, that’s if you can stop yourself from eating it all for that long.
SHORTBREAD HEARTS OF PASSION
I guess these could be renamed Melting Moments with Passionfruit Filling, but cutting them into heart shapes and naming them ‘Hearts of Passion’ is definitely more colourful. Obviously you can make them any shape you want and while the recipe uses I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, you can use butter as a substitute if you want to.
APPLE CAKE
The unusual thing about this apple cake is that instead of using stewed apples for the filling, the apples are grated and simply layered on top of the cake mixture. The picture seems to suggest having it with tea or coffee, but I think it would work just as well as a yummy dessert.
CHRISTMAS SLICES
I make rum balls, apricot balls, shortbread and a few other sweet treats each Christmas. I haven’t tried these, but I think I’d probably change the mixed peel for mixed fruit if I did. I’m not a fan of mixed peel and I think the other fruit would be nicer.
ALMOND AND COCONUT MACAROONS
These are great, either served as a biscuit with coffee or as an addition to a dessert like chocolate mousse.
CORN AND PEANUT BUTTER MUFFINS
Something for the kids’ lunchboxes or your own!! A batch of these in the freezer might be useful for those days when you’re in a rush or you’ve just run out of ideas…………..
