PERSONAL NOTE:
This recipe has to be one of the quickest and easiest desserts to make. It's also great for those occasions when your children let you know they have to bring something in for the cake store at school that morning, fifteen minutes before you have to leave. It's even handy for the times you need to make a quick slice for an event or afternoon tea when entertaining visitors.
To your benefit, the recipe requires only a small workspace and will leave you with very little to wash up.
