White Chocolate, Raspberry & Macadamia Slice

I've found it!  My 'recipe of the season'.  You know, the recipe that you'll make over and over again for Christmas gatherings, meetings, visits from relatives, those days when you've spent too much money, so you decide to go home and have coffee instead of dropping into a cafe...


This is a winner, because it keeps for a few days (and gets better with age), and freezes really well too!  And it's ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!  (And healthy - it's got fruit!)
White Chocolate Raspberry and Macadamia Slice
Ingredients:
125g butter, chopped
200g white chocolate, chopped (I used Nestle Melts)
3/4 cup caster sugar
2 eggs beaten lightly
3/4 cup plain flour
1/2 cup self raising flour
100g white chocolate, chopped (extra) (I used Nestle white Choc Bits)
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, toasted and chopped coarsely
150g fresh or frozen raspberries (don't thaw if frozen)
Icing sugar, to dust

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  2. Grease a 16cm x 26cm slice tin.  Line with baking paper.
  3. Combine 200g chocolate and butter and melt in the microwave.
  4. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in rest of ingredients.  Add frozen raspberries last.
  5. Spread mixture in pan.  Bake in moderate oven for about 50 minutes or until firm.
  6. Cool in pan (if you don't let it cool first, it will fall apart)
  7. Cut and dust with icing sugar.
Keep stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
