Fig and Berry Slice

This is a recipe from a Weight Watchers book and it's not bad at all.


In fact it's quite nice with a cuppa of an afternoon, or as something sweet for breakfast

You'll need

8 dried figs (chopped)
1 tablespoon of honey
1/4 cup water
60 grams butter (or margarine)
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups plain flour

Topping
200 gr frozen raspberries (I used mixed berries)
1/2 cup raspberry jam

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and grease and line a 20x30 lamington tray. (I used a 20x20 cake pan)

Combine the figs, honey and water in a saucepan and bring to the boil, then simmer for 5 minutes and let cool


Beat the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy then stir in the flour and cooled fig mixture. Place it in the baking tray and press down with a fork then bake for 20 minutes.


Combine the raspberries and jam in a saucepan and bring to the boil then let cool for a minute
Spoon it over the cooked slice and allow to cool before slicing and serving


Delicious
