Rasberry almonde whatever-de

Uni has started which means this blog will resurrect. I can hear the joyful hollers.
So I've started this new thing where I make slices each week and freeze them or put them in the fridge or whatever, which will save me heaps of time during the week when it comes to making lunch as:
a) I already have slices I can grab out of the fridge so I don't waste time panicking
b) I save myself from buying slices which I do all too often. And the ones at the shops are gross anyway. Does anybody know how to make a good slice?
c) Perfect thing to eat during the gaps between lectures as we all know its way too hard to whip out an intense lunch while walking through the packed corridors of uni or too awkward to pull out during your 10 minute breaks in lectures.

allrecipes.au has a list of 'healthy' slice recipes. I'm not fully convinced they're healthy but whatevs.

So I made their Rasberry and Walnut slice.
Ingredients:

Except I substituted the walnuts with almonds. Much better.

How quick can you:
Read whatever the website tells you to do. I put a little bit of coconut on top as well.
How quick did I do?
That batter took a while to mix....

Ok let's be honest. Was it good?
I don't know. I thought it was a bit dry. Not the best of recipes. But mum's already eaten most of it so I guess we have a fan. Absolutely perfecto with acidophilus unsweetened yoghurt.
