Jelly Slice
Original recipe found in PWMU cookbook and made by my Nan throughout my childhood.
Base:
250g packet Marie or Granita biscuits (I prefer granita)
180g butter, cubed
Middle:
400g can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 tspn gelatine
3/4 cup boiling water
Topping:
1 packet strawberry jelly crystals
1 tspn gelatine
1 cup boiling water
1 cup cold water
Method:
To make base place biscuits and butter in tm and crush 5-6 seconds, speed 6-7.
Melt 2 minutes, 90°C, speed 3.
Press evenly into 25cm x 18cm approx. (fairly deep) lined slice tin.
Refrigerate until firm.
To make middle layer dissolve gelatine in boiling water and place in tm along with condensed milk and lemon juice.
Blend 30 seconds, speed 4 or until smooth. Scrape down sides if needed.
Pour over biscuit base and refrigerate until set.
To make topping place jelly crystals and gelatine in a large jug.
Mix in boiling water and stir until dissolved.
Stir in cold water and leave until consistency of egg white.
When ready, pour jelly over the back of a spoon, onto the top of the slice.
Refrigerate until firmly set or overnight.
Note: Sorry no photos, will add to post when I make this again. You can use different jelly flavours and colors. My boys want me to try blueberry jelly next time. This recipe works really well in the tupperware slice containers but don't put the lid on until after jelly has set so that it doesn't sweat or stick to lid.
Finally remembered to post a photo(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/03/uhuryges.jpg)

jo nz - I made this for my birthday party last night and it was hugely popular - with both adults and kids. I could probably have made double and it would have all gone.
maddy - I hadn't made this in years and apparently it's Hubby's favourite. I had no clue! I used silicone cupcake moulds.
-
A firm favorite in my household for the last 40 years .
-
Oh this was a favourite of mine when I was a kid! I've never made it myself, will have to give it a go sometime.
-
Oh I Love love love this recipe, my Nan used to make it too and I was forever calling her for the recipe (I'd write it down then throw it away). It's a recipe I've been meaning to convert for ages, thank you! :)
-
I love jelly slice. Makes me feel like a kid again. Saw some today, $4.50 for a medium sized slice. Thanks for the conversion Kimmyh.
-
Must try this, thanks Kimmy :D
-
I think it was standard party food at every birthday my kids had.
-
I think my standard party food as a kid was fairy bread ;D And my mum's "slap-up" cake!
-
Yes I remember this one too although I never made it as another family member used to bring it to all get togethers. I'm surprised it hasn't been converted and posted before so well done Kimmy. Some of the old recipes using simple ingredients are still hard to beat.
-
Another one into the Kimmyh folder . .!! Thank you!! :D :-*

Funnily enough, I don't recall this at all from childhood, but my sister and some other friends did!
-
Great conversion Kimmy. I've found that our households seem to enjoy the same things.
-
We do don't we cookie. Not a bad thing. Means we could wife swap and they would still be happy ;)
Glad it was a hit Jo. It is a golden oldie.

Lovely maddy. Perhaps you should post the picture & link to the recipe in Individual desserts (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=12162.0) as well - it will be a great thread to go to when entertaining so the more desserts in there the better.
