I have a confession. Up until this afternoon I had NEVER eaten a Clinker before in my entire life – crazy I know. After spotting bags of them on special at our new supermarket yesterday (which I’m a little excited about) I decided it was time to try these little delights and thought what better way to taste them for the first time than in a yummy no bake Clinkers Slice.
This recipe for Clinkers Slice has a lot of similarities to many of the other no bake slices I’ve made in the past. As I had condensed milk leftover, I decided to ‘revamp’ my Caramello Slice – new pictures coming soon.
As eager as the boys were to try this one, I decided it’s a little too naughty for them, so instead they satisfied their never ending hunger with a piece of muesli slice – perfect as this leave more for me to enjoy.
Now that I’ve discovered these little treasures, I’m eager to make more recipes with them – so please hit me up with your suggestions!
Clinkers Slice
Ingredients
- 200 g of Clinkers
- 200 g of Marie or similar biscuits
- 125 g of butter
- 1 cup of condensed milk just under a full tin
- 200 g of milk chocolate
Instructions
- Line a slice tin with baking paper, making sure you leave plenty hanging over the edge to help you lift the slice out of the tin later.
- Crush the biscuits and Clinkers into large pieces using a food processor - a rolling pin will also work! Place the crushed biscuits and clinkers into a large bowl and set aside.
- Place the butter and condensed milk into a small saucepan and cook it over a low heat until the butter has melted and both ingredients have combined.
- Pour the combined condensed milk and butter into the bowl with the crushed biscuits and Clinkers. Use a large metal spoon to mix together.
- Pour the mixture into your lined baking tin and use the back of a metal spoon to spread the mixture evenly across the tray and push down to create a flat surface.
- Break the milk chocolate into small pieces and place it into a microwave safe bowl. Cook for 30 sec spurts (stirring in between) until the chocolate has almost melted. Remove from the microwave and stir until completely melted.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the top of the slice and place in the fridge to set (preferably 4+ hours).
- Remove the set slice from the fridge and cut into small pieces.

Hi Lauren
I live in South Africa and we don’t have Clunkers here. What can I use as a substitute?
Thanks, Sam
Samantha Cupido says
Oops I meant Clinkers
Lauren Matheson says
Hi Samantha, You could use another hard/crunchy chocolate lolly instead, it’s a pretty versatile recipe and handles substitutions pretty well. I hope you enjoy it 🙂
