Hands up who loves Jelly Slice! I've tried a couple of versions, but ALWAYS seem to come back to this easy Thermomix Jelly Slice recipe!
Jelly Slice is such a classic slice recipe and my Mum has been making this slice for special occasions for as long as I can remember. The key to making this easy Thermomix Jelly Slice recipe is to make sure you let each layer chill in the fridge and bring the jelly to room temperature before adding it to the slice, otherwise you may end up with a bit of a melted mess.
Ingredients
For The Base
- 200 g Arnott's Marie biscuits or any other plain biscuit
- 225 g butter
For The Filling
- 2½ tspns gelatine
- ¾ cup boiling water
- 395 g can of condensed milk
- 2 lemons juiced
For The Top Layer
- 1 packet strawberry jelly
- boiling water as per jelly packet instructions
- 1 tspn gelatine extra
Instructions
For The Base
- Line the base and the sides of a slice tin with baking paper, making sure you leave plenty hanging over the sides.
- Place the biscuits in the bowl and crush for 5 seconds, Speed 9.
- Add the butter and heat for 3 minutes,80 degrees, Speed 2.
- Remove biscuit mixture from the bowl and pour into the lined tray. Push the mixture down with a metal spoon to create a flat surface. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to set.
For The Filling
- To make the filling, combine the gelatine in a jug with the boiling water and allow to cool slightly.
- In a clean Thermomix bowl, add the lemon juice and condensed milk and mix for 45 seconds, Speed 4, with the measuring cup off. At the 5 seconds, carefully start pouring the gelatine mixture in to the bowl to combine.
- Remove the set slice base from the fridge and pour over the filling. Put back into the fridge for 30 minutes
For The Top Layer
- In a clean Thermomix bowl, add the hot water and heat for 3 minutes, 90 degrees, Speed 2.
- Add the jelly crystals and gelatine and mix on Speed 2 until they have dissolved. Pour jelly into another bowl and allow it to cool until it has reached room temperature.
- Remove the slice from the fridge and carefully pour the jelly over the slice. Place it back in the fridge to set for approximately 4 hours - overnight is best.
- Remove the set slice from the fridge and cut into squares.

Helen Pounder says
Hi can I bake the base I think it would be nicer, 🌸
Lucy says
Hi Helen, we find that the best results are when the recipe is followed exactly 🙂
Shari says
This looks delicious - just wondering if I can double the recipe? I have a larger than normal slice tin so want to make sure the layers are nice and thick!
Lauren Matheson says
Hi Shari, I haven't actually tried to double this recipe before I'm afraid. I normally use a 28 x 18cm slice tin and it does make a big thick slice in that one if that helps 🙂

Question for all you Jelly Slice lovers; can it be frozen? Doing school lunchbox mega cook to stock the freezer for the term and would love to include this. Thanks in advance.
Lauren Matheson says
I Felicity, I haven't tried to freeze this recipe before but I don't think it would freeze too well. Sorry xx
