RECIPE: Weet-Bix Slice for the Afternoon Tea Win

Finally guys, we’ve found something to do with Weet-Bix crumbs! And if your kids (like mine) have declared they don’t want Weet-Bix anymore, don’t tell them. I promise they’ll be none the wiser!

My kids are fickle beings. One minute they’re all over breakfast cereal and then.. they’re not. Alas, there HAS to be something to do with it all. So without further ado, first delicious cab off the cereal rank is Weet-Bix slice. YUM. It’s nestled somewhere between a slice and cake and is mighty delicious. The kids don’t have to know it has Weet-Bix in it!
