Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup (150g) of plain flour
• 1/2 cup of coconut
• 125g of butter
• 1/2 cup (70g) of brown sugar
• Filling
• 1/3 cup (120g) of golden syrup
• 125g of butter
• 2 x 400g cans of condensed milk - Make sure you use a good quality brand (I use Nestle) as Ive heard that the caramel hasnt set too well when other brands of condensed milk (homebrand/aldi) have been used.
• Topping
• 220g of milk chocolate
• 1/2 teaspoon of vegetable oil

Directions

• Preheat your oven to 180 degrees and line a 18 x 28cm slice tin with baking paper.
• Melt the butter.
• Place the flour, coconut, sugar and butter into a large bowl and mix with a metal spoon to combine.
• Pour the mixture into your prepared slice tin and flatten the surface with a spoon. Place the tray into the oven and bake for 16 - 18 minutes or until its golden brown.
• In the meantime you can start making the caramel filling. Place the butter, condensed milk and golden syrup into a small saucepan and stir oven a low heat for approximately 8 minutes or until the mixture is lovely and thick.
• Pour the caramel over the base once it has cooked and put it back in the oven to bake for a further 20 minutes or until the caramel is golden.
• Remove the slice from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before place it in the fridge to chill.
• Once the slice has chilled, place the milk chocolate and vegetable oil into a microwave safe bowl and cook for 30 second spurts until its melted. Pour over the top of the slice and return to the fridge for 1 hour or until set.
• Cut into small squares to serve.
