Choc-Vanilla Slice

22/8/2015

If I think of a dessert that was my mum's and that everyone loved, this is it. She was asked to make this at every party we went to.

Originally it was made with Arnott's Morning Coffee Biscuits and White Wings Vanilla Magic Instant Mousse and it was a delicious, delicious dessert. But for some reason both items were discontinued at the same time, which for me was upsetting as I could no longer get to eat a dessert that I found divine.

My mum recently went about trying different biscuits and pudding mixes and found this to be the closest to her original recipe. The biscuit is slightly thicker than the original one, but flavour wise similar. The pudding mix although not as good as the original, is quite close and is still fabulous.


Now Cottee's where I am, have also discontinued the chocolate pudding, so we now use two layers of the vanilla pudding instead.

So for you out there who never tried my mum's original recipe you won't know the difference. For those that do, you will love this one to. This is a simple dessert that everyone that tries it loves.

A quick tip: When it is time to slice, flip the cake onto a clean board and slice with the chocolate down on the board, the chocolate tends not to crack when you do it this way.

This cake can be sliced and frozen, it can even be eaten slightly frozen and it's like an ice cream slice.

Once you make this, you will never stop making it.

Recipe

Serves 20

2 x 250g packets milk coffee biscuits
1 cup boiling water
2 tablespoons instant coffee powder
1 x 100g packet Cottee's Instant Vanilla Pudding
2 x 300ml cartons thickened cream
1 1/2 cups milk
1 x 100g packet Cottee's Instant Chocolate Pudding (or another vanilla)
150g dark chocolate
50g unsalted butter

Line a 20cm x 30cm lamington pan with a sheet of foil to cover base and two opposite sides, bring foil 5cm above edge of pan.

In a medium sized bowl add the coffee powder and boiling water, stir to combine. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.

Dip one-third of the biscuits into the coffee, place each biscuit side by side over the base of the prepared pan. Don't over soak the biscuits, or they will become soggy.

In a large bowl combine the vanilla pudding mix with 1/2 the cream (300ml) and 1/2 of the milk (3/4 cup), beat with an electric mixer for about 1 minute, or until the mixture is thick, but spreadable. Spread evenly over the biscuit base.

Dip half of the remaining biscuits into the coffee, place side by side over the vanilla pudding.

In a large bowl combine the chocolate pudding mix with the remaining 300ml cream and remaining 3/4 cup milk, beat with an electric mixer for about 1 minute, or until the mixture is thick, but spreadable. Spread evenly over the biscuit base.

Dip the remaining biscuits into the coffee, place side by side over the chocolate pudding.

Combine the chocolate with the butter in a small heatproof bowl, place the bowl over a pan of simmering water, stir until the butter and chocolate have melted. Spread quickly over the biscuits, to cover.

Picture
Place in the refrigerator uncovered to set for 30 minutes. Then cover with some aluminium foil and refrigerate overnight.

When slicing, I like to slice it chocolate side down, the chocolate tends to not crack this way.

Serve cut into squares.
Enjoy!

Chicken Wings Nutrition: Are They Healthy? A Dietitian’s Deep Dive
By Mr. Nupin
Founder of TheWellBlog, Nutrition Expert

Chicken Wings Nutrition

Chicken wings are a beloved snack, game-day staple, and guilty pleasure for many. But if you're health-conscious, you might wonder: are chicken wings healthy? The answer isn’t black and white—it depends on how they're prepared, portion sizes, and what you pair them with.

In this article, we’ll break down the nutritional profile of chicken wings, explore their calorie content, and even dive into a flavorful twist with Spanish wings. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast or just a wing lover, this guide will help you enjoy them without derailing your diet.

Are Chicken Wings Healthy? The Dietitian’s Breakdown
The question are chicken wings healthy? is a common one, especially among those watching their weight or managing health conditions like diabetes or heart disease.

The Good: Protein & Essential Nutrients
Chicken wings are a great source of:

High-quality protein (essential for muscle repair and growth)

B vitamins (especially B6 and B12, which support metabolism and energy)

Minerals like iron, zinc, and selenium (important for immunity and thyroid function)

The Bad: Fat & Sodium Content
However, not all wings are created equal. The health factor largely depends on:

Cooking method (fried vs. baked vs. grilled)

Sauce choices (buttery, sugary sauces add extra calories)

Portion control (it’s easy to overeat!)

Deep-fried wings slathered in high-sugar sauces can be a calorie bomb, while grilled or baked wings with lighter seasoning can be a smarter choice.

Chicken Wings Calories: What You Need to Know
If you're tracking your intake, understanding chicken wings calories is crucial. Here’s a general breakdown per wing (approx. 1 oz, meat and skin included):

Preparation Method Calories per Wing Protein (g) Fat (g) Carbs (g)
Fried (plain) ~100-120 6-8 7-9 0-1
Baked (plain) ~80-100 7-9 5-7 0
Grilled ~70-90 8-10 4-6 0
Buffalo sauce Adds ~50-70 Minimal 4-6 3-5
How to Make Wings Healthier
Opt for baking or grilling instead of deep-frying.

Use air fryers for a crispy texture with less oil.

Choose lighter sauces like lemon pepper, garlic parmesan, or dry rubs.

Pair with veggies (celery, carrots) instead of fries to balance the meal.

A Flavorful Twist: Spanish Wings (Alitas de Pollo)
If you love wings but want a different flavor profile, Spanish wings offer a delicious, zesty alternative. These Puerto Rican-style wings, or alitas de pollo, are marinated in citrus, garlic, and spices, then grilled or baked for a healthier yet bold taste.

Why Try Spanish Wings?
✅ Lower in fat (often grilled instead of fried)
✅ Packed with flavor (adobo, lime, cilantro)
✅ Great for meal prep (marinate ahead for easy cooking)

Here’s a quick recipe idea:

Puerto Rican-Style Alitas de Pollo
Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken wings

3 garlic cloves (minced)

1 lime (juiced)

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp paprika

½ tsp oregano

Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions:

Marinate wings in garlic, lime juice, olive oil, and spices for at least 1 hour.

Grill or bake at 400°F for 25-30 mins until crispy.

Serve with avocado salsa or a fresh salad.

Final Verdict: Can Chicken Wings Fit in a Healthy Diet?
Yes—if you make smart choices! Here’s the summary:

✔ Protein-rich, but watch the cooking method.
✔ Calories add up quickly, so portion mindfully.
