Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 8in x 8in square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Weet-Bix biscuits, self-raising flour, brown sugar, and desiccated coconut. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, lightly beaten egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well combined and forms a sticky dough.

Notes

Tips and Tricks

Make sure the Weet-Bix biscuits are crushed into fine crumbs to ensure an even texture.
Use a fork to whisk the wet ingredients together instead of a whisk for easier cleaning.
Line the baking pan with parchment paper to make it easier to remove the squares from the pan once they're done baking.
