For many of us, jelly is a treat that’s often left behind with our childhoods – alongside the likes of Barbies, The Wiggles and long division. And yet, this refreshing, brightly hued, wobbly dessert need not be relegated to the category of kids’ party treats. Why should kids have all the fun? In fact, we think this playful jelly slice recipe is grown-up enough that it’ll please adults and children of all ages. This one came to us from Taste member ‘bird55’. What we love about this jelly slice recipe Made up of three simple layers (a buttery biscuit base, a lemony condensed milk centre and a raspberry jelly top), this no-bake slice is easy to make and easier to eat – just ensure you allow enough time to chill and set each layer. Key ingredients in our jelly slice recipe: Plain sweet biscuits: We used Marie biscuits to create a delicious biscuit base for this slice, but you can use any plain sweet biscuits you like. Butter: it would hardly be a buttery biscuit slice base without butter, which holds the crumb together. Cinnamon ground: a pinch of ground cinnamon brings flavour to our base. You can omit this if you don't have cinnamon on hand. Sweetened condensed milk: very few of our favourite slices don't include sweetened condensed milk! It forms the creamy middle layer on our jelly slice. Lemon juice: a little strained, freshly squeezed lemon juice rounds out the sweetened condensed milk. Gelatine powder: gelatine powder gives structural integrity to the middle layer, creating a lemon and condensed milk jelly. Raspberry jelly crystals: the final layer is a fun and nostalgic one comprising shocking pink raspberry jelly! We used Aeroplane Jelly to top our slice. The grown-up jelly fun doesn’t end at the simple yet delicious jelly slice: we have plenty of jelly recipes adults will adore. From a pretty-in-pink rosé jelly and vanilla tart to our Aperol spritz jelly shots, and from a tropical pina colada jelly slice, to a show-stopping rhubarb, strawberry and gin jelly, these passionfruit and prosecco jelly cups, and a layered Singapore sling jelly cake. There’s even a beetroot jelly cheesecake, if you’re feeling adventurous. And, come Christmas time, our jelly-filled trifles are go-to desserts to please a crowd. Indecisive?
