Easy No-Bake Ginger Chocolate Slice Recipe – 3 ingredients only

Ginger and chocolate in a seductively moreish no bake recipe. Like the sound of that? If so, you really need to save this absolute hero of a recipe. Sometimes you want/need quick, easy and simple. And nothing could be more straightforward but utterly delicious than my ginger slice.

Despite being made of only three simple ingredients, that you’re quite likely to already have in, this recipe is so much more than a sum of its parts.

The base has cheesecake base vibes which is always a good thing, because there is something inherently yummy about a cheesecake base. But then imagine that with a fudgy truffle chocolate topping. Sounds good right? Even though it sounds good it actually tastes even better than that. It’s moreish, decadent and extravagant yet homey and comforting at the same time. As I said, this recipe is so much more than a sum of its parts!

This chocolate ginger slice is perfect for making if you’re in a rush, on holiday with no real equipment or just because it’s really yummy. This is a recipe well worth saving!

Also because of its simplicity it can easily be adapted for most requirements. I make it dairy-free but you could use dairy if you wish, or use gluten-free biscuits and you have a wonderful GF snack. I’ve chosen to use dark chocolate but you can quite as easily use your favourite chocolate brand.
