Last week I had the urge to bake some new treats, but I didn’t have a lot of time so I decided on this Gluten Free Coconut Ice Slice. It only took 45 minutes to make from start to finish and has a great balance of flavour with the coconut ice topping and biscuit base.

Do you have a go-to recipe when you’re running short of time?

Thanks for reading,
