Looking for the BEST No Bake Malteser Slice recipe? Well you’ve found it!
This classic slice is always a popular choice whenever I serve it at parties, and I love that I can make it a few days in advance of when I need it. This slice is slightly different from the original version as I use milk chocolate instead of dark for the base, however you can use dark chocolate if you prefer.
Regardless of whether you make this conventionally or using a Thermomix, this is a seriously easy recipe to put together. All you need to do is:
- Crush the Biscuits:
2. Melt the chocolate, butter and golden syrup
3. Combine the ingredients and pop into your baking tray
4. Then top with melted white chocolate and more Maltesers – too easy!
I find this slice takes a good four hours or so to set, however if you really can’t wait that long, you can check after three hours. Once set, slice into pieces and enjoy!
My Tips for Making This No Bake Maltesers Slice:
- You will need two blocks of milk and white chocolate for this recipe. Please note you will have leftover milk chocolate.
- I like to add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil to the white chocolate when melting it, this helps to cut the slice without the white chocolate layer cracking.
- I use a 20cm square baking tin for this recipe, however you can also use an 18 x 28cm slice tin if you prefer, your slice pieces will just not be quite as thick.
- If you can’t find Marie Biscuits, you can use any other type of plain sweet biscuit.
- For a richer base you can use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
- The mixture will be quite sticky when you are combining the ingredients, this is normal.

Hi, how long would this recipe keep for once made?!
Lauren Matheson

Cindy
Do you know if this can be made in advance and then frozen until needed?? Thanks
Lauren Matheson
Hi Cindy, I haven’t tried to freeze this slice before, I’m not sure how the chocolate would go when you defrosted it. sorry I can’t be of more help xx
Elizabeth
Where can I buy these biscuits…?
Lauren Matheson

M.jenkins
This recipe is absolutely Morish
Deirdre
I tried this recipe, but when I added the wet ingredients to the biscuit, the butter started to separate. It rose to the top and settled in greasy pools. I’m not sure what I did wrong. Might you have an idea? I’d love to try this again.
Lauren Matheson
Hi Deirdre, THanks for your feedback 🙂 Hmm, I’m not sure what has happened. Possibly the fat content of the butter you used may have caused it to split?
Sasha
Hi , just wanted to say thank you sooo much for sharing this recipe! It was that much of a hit at my friend’s McMillan cake afternoon that I won ‘star baker’! I will definitely be attempting these again in the future 🙂
Lauren Matheson
Oh thanks much Sasha, I’m thrilled you won star baker and you enjoyed it 🙂
Louise
When you say place the chocolate butter and syrup into a bowl, it would be better to stipulate that you only mean the milk chocolate. Am going to try this recipe.
Lauren Matheson
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll clarify this. I hope you enjoy the recipe 🙂
Kerri
Haha, this is exactly what I did, added both the milk and white chocolate…then got to the step for the white chocolate top and…oops! I continued on and everyone still loved it, despite there not being a white choc top on it! I see you’ve since clarified the instructions, thanks!
Lynda
Can u add ingredients for the usa or what can be subbed.thanks
Lauren Matheson
Hi Lynda, Sorry but I’m not sure what is available in the USA to use as a substitution – I’m from Australia. Sorry I can’t be of more help. Merry Christmas x
Maureen
Just wondering if you did it in the Thermomix you wouldn’t get those pieces of Maltesers throughout, would you, cos they would all get blitzed?
Lauren
Hi Maureen, I did make the slice pictured using my Thermomix, it does chop them up a little but there are still large pieces. You could always use it on reverse if you want to make sure the Maltesers stay big. I hope that helps 🙂
Linda Waldrep
In US. What is golden syrup?
Lauren
Hi Linda, it’s similar to maple/corn syrup 🙂
