If you are looking for an easy no bake slice, this Milk Chocolate and Hazelnut Slice is for you!
What makes this slice really special (in my opinion!) is the toasted flaked almonds in the base and the almost caramel like flavour of the other ingredients. When I first started making this slice I was just using one block of Hazelnut Chocolate, however it really is worth using two blocks, I promise you won’t regret it!
If you are making this Chocolate and Hazelnut Slice for a special occasion, you can make it a few days in advance and simply store it in an airtight container in your fridge. We find it keeps well up to around one week, however good luck making it last that long!
Tips for Making my Milk Chocolate and Hazelnut Slice Recipe:
- This slice is best kept in an airtight container in your fridge.
- You will need to carefully watch the flaked almonds while they are under the grill as they can burn easily.
- You will need 2 blocks of chocolate for this recipe.
- If you don’t have coconut oil, you can use copha instead. Adding either of these helps to make the chocolate layer of the slice easier to cut through.
- You can use any type of plain biscuit for this recipe, I have used both Arnott’s Marie and Arrowroot Biscuits with great results.
- If you don’t want any leftovers, you can use a full tin of condensed milk for this recipe however the base of your slice will be a little sticky.

Instead of copha could I use coconut oil ?
Lauren Matheson
Yes you sure can x
Marianne Parsons
Being a huge hazelnut fan, this looks amazing! Two questions: we don’t have Arrowroot biscuits here (USA); can I use Graham crackers’? Secondly, what’s copha? Thanks!!
Lauren @ createbakemake
Hi Marianne, Thank you!! I’ve attached a link to the Arnott’s website (company who makes Arrowroot biscuits) so you can see what they look like. I think as long as you use a sweet plain biscuit you will be fine! Copha is just vegetable shortening, it helps the chocolate layer spread over the slice. You could substitute it for a tablespoon of vegetable oil if you prefer. Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day 🙂

Every time I see your blog recipes I have an internal struggle…..to make and eat these glorious looking treats or to resist and just admire. Thankfully hubby takes half of whatever I do make to work for morning teas so they’ll be happy that I’m going to give this one a go! Looks great!
Lauren @ createbakemake
Thanks Kira! I struggle too. I figure I do have to try at least one piece/slice, especially if I haven’t made it before. My husband takes it all to work too, or if he is really lucky I will even deliver morning tea to his work. I really enjoy the baking process and could easily spend all day making lots of yummy things.

I’ve put on 5kg in the past month because I just can’t stop eating – must figure out what’s going on. Must be an emotional thing, so I will admire from afar! x
Lauren @ createbakemake
