A "slice" is a typical Australian bar-type cookie. They come in many different variations and flavors. This one is great because it doesn't involve any baking, though it does require at least two hours of divided refrigeration time. You can use other flavors of jello, too - just make its compatible with the lemon flavoring in the milk base.
