Chocolate Fingers, the Bar to Beat All Bars! (No Bake)
By: kiwidutch
Jan 28, 2007
This recipe has been in my family recipe book for more than 20 years... I can't remember if I got it off a friend or out of the newspaper or if it was from my mother.... it's an "always been there" recipe and if you double it you can keep a whole school class full of kids very very very happy. It dissappears rather quickly around adults too 
This recipe is different from many other ones with condensed milk, coconut etc becuase it contains sultanas but no nuts. It's easy to make and stores well in an airtight container .. . so can be made in advance, handy when party planning. The icing can be made with chocolate OR cocoa powder or a little of both, works well all ways.
PLEASE NOTE: this single batch of the recipe calls for HALF a can of condensed milk... our cans are 397 grams = 14 oz) so you will only need 7 oz. DO melt the butter completely before adding the condensed milk, otherwise you will have lumps of butter that are difficult to melt, and do keep the heat very low for the condensed milk mixture because it scorches easily. The finished bar /slice is also nicer if you leave the cookie crumbs fairly chunky and not a fine dust.
ZWT REGION: New Zealand.

As is usual, I found another wonderful chocolate fix amongst this chef's recipes ~ What a great way to celebrate chocolate or just about anything! My daughter (in absentia!) & I enjoyed these as we celebrated her up-coming birthday the end of the month (she's in TN & I'm in So Cal, so...)! Anyway, these are OUTSTANDING fingers, & I especially loved the addition of the sultanas! Thanks for sharing your great recipe! [Made & reviewed as a kidnapped recipe in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #16]

Very yummy, and very sweet, not unlike a hedgehog slice/cake in taste. I used chocolate ripple biscuit's(all I had on hand) but I think because of the chocolate biscuit I should have left the cocoa out of the finger mixture, although they still turned out very delicious indeed!!! I used the cocoa powder for the icing, but next time I will try the chocolate instead, I think that might be a little nicer then just the cocoa. But overall a very easy, very yummy and definately liked and devoured by this family. Thanks kiwidutch!!
