This slice is quick to throw together and is a favourite in our house. You can slice into small bites for a great lunch box snack or into bigger slices for a shepherd that needs the energy for a long walk. Full of yummy bits that you can change depending on what you have on hand, this slice is like an ANZAC biscuit mixed with scroggin and is similar to a Cookie Time Bumper Bar.
