Maltesers Fudge Slice

A few months ago I was given a recipe for a low fat low sugar low cal Weight Watcher's dessert recipe with one of my all time favourite chocolate, Maltesers. It has taken me this long to try it because I honestly thought that the low sugar and low fat would bring along with it low taste. I am so so pleased to say that I was wrong on that assumption. This recipe made a dessert that is tasty and moist and sticky and fudgey and just Malteserey goodness all the way through.

This recipe has no butter at all, very little vegetable oil and it uses vanilla fruche so it's a win win from the word go. 

**** this original recipe only calls for 120g of Maltesers but I must admit that I bought a jumbo pack, added about 200g in the cake, kept 24 balls aside for decorations and ate the rest ... hehehhehehe****

Maltesers Fudge Slice

1 cup self raising flour
3/4 cup cocoa powder
approx 200g Maltesers
2 eggs
3/4 castor sugar
2 tbs vegetable oil
2 x 150g tubs lite french vanilla Fruche
1/3 cup skim milk
vanilla frosting for decoration is optional (I used store bought)

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
2. In a big bowl mix flour, cocoa powder and Maltesers
3. Use another bowl and whisk all remaining ingredients. Then add to dry ingredients and mix well.
4. Place batter into a tin and smooth the top down. I used a silicone tray but if you don't make sure you line bottom and sides with baking powder.
5. Bake for 30 minutes until firm.
6. Allow to completely cool before cutting.
7. Add a little vanilla frosting if you wish. It doesn't really need it but I could not help myself!
