Instrucciones para la impresión en alta definición
- Line a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with baking paper. Set aside.
- In the bowl of the food processor, place the Weetabix, pitted dates, unsweetened cocoa powder, and any of the optional ingredients if you like: desiccated coconut and vanilla extract.
- Add Weetbix, cocoa powder, and any of the optional ingredients.
- Process until it forms a crumbly mixture. Process it on low and gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time. Stop adding water when the batter is sticky and easy to press in your hands. I usually add 6 tablespoons of water.
- Press the mixture into the loaf pan firmly and evenly.
- If you are making the chocolate layer, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts until fully melted.
- Pour over the bar. Pop the bar for 12-15 minutes in the freezer to set the chocolate shell hard.
- Cut into bars and store it in the fridge for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.

Ingredientes y sustituciones
- weetbix – Weetabix or Weetbix “cakes” are the base of the slice. Use gluten-free Weetbix if needed.
- Fechas medjool – Provides natural sweetness. Other soft dates can be used, but may need soaking.
- Cacao en polvo sin azúcar – Cocoa powder adds chocolate flavor. Cacao powder can be used for a raw option.

- Chips de chocolate amargo – For the chocolate shell. Choose cocoa percentage based on preference, I like anything over 70%.
- Aceite de Coco – Coconut oil helps the chocolate shell set. Can be omitted if preferred.

- Extracto de vainilla – Enhances overall flavor. Can be omitted or replaced with other extracts.
How to Make No-Bake Weetbix Slice
Making this recipe is really easy as all it takes is blending and pressing the batter in a pan.
Use Weetbix blocks for the slice, not bites.
Place all the base ingredients in a food processor.
Process the batter until it’s sticky.
Transfer the Weetbix slice batter into a pan lined with parchment paper.
Flatten the Weetbix slice with the back of a spoon.
Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a bowl and pour it on top of the the slice. Let it set in the fridge.
Consejos de Carine
- Para una textura más firme, refrigerate the base before adding the chocolate layer.
- Experiment with different add-ins like chopped nuts, seeds, or dried fruit for variety.
- To make cutting easier, dip your knife in hot water between slices.
- Para un aporte extra de proteínas, add a scoop of your favorite pea or peanut protein powder to the mixture.
- Try using different types of Weetbix, like fruit-flavored varieties, for a twist on the classic.
- For a more indulgent treat, drizzle with peanut butter or almond butter before setting.
- These slices freeze well, so consider making a double batch for future snacks.
nice tasty recipe, but I think the sugar content is wrong at over 18g. i used the really plump medjool dates and there’s 60g of sugars per 6 so that’s 120g even with the add ons it comes in at 135g in total. I’ve checked most sugar content for the dates and they are roughly the same sugar. This recipe with my calculations is coming in at around 12g of sugar per slice
It really depends on the chocolate you used, not all dark chocolate contains the same amount of sugar.
Can these slices be left unrefrigerated?
Por supuesto
beautiful! This reminds me so much of a true classic dessert called Australian chocolate crunch that had crushed cornflakes and coconut in it!
I haven’t tried an Australian chocolate crunch yet, but now I am tempted!
Hola.
Was looking at the sugar content per slice 18.8g which i thought was a lot. Im trying to cut back sugar in my foods. Is this all just natural sugars ie from the dates? These look very yummy to make, thanku
Yes, 95% of the sugar comes naturally from dates, which also adds fibers that slow down the absorption of the sugar. There’s also a bit of added sugar in weetbix cereals.
hi , what weight or cup of weetbix crumbs would you need for 5 weetbix please?
A weetbix biscuit weight between 18 to 22 g.
Hi how many slices do you get from the recipe. What is 132cals per slice based on. Thanks
It’s based on the serving size that appears before the list of ingredients, it says serving 12
Thank you for Metric option. However , there is mention of CUP measures…. Should be given in Ounces or grams to be truly Metric. Please consider this when publishing future recipes. In U.K. we do not use cup measurements .
True, it was a mistake on our hand and I corrected the metric measurement to be in grams/ml. Enjoy!
Is there something I can substitute Weetbix with? In the United States and we can’t find Weetbix here so easily.
I understand, I think in USA you have something similar in texture, called shredded wheat, but they are small bites, so I am not sure how much you need to achieve 5 of my Weetbix biscuits.
Thank you for the recipe, this was so good.
Omg made these for me to have a snack at work and they disappeared in 5 mins I’m sad I shared them with work friends now! Ha! Ha!
