Chocolate Caramel Macadamia Slice Recipe
Makes 24 small pieces
Ingredients:
1 cup plain flour
⅓ cup firmly packed brown sugar
¾ cup desiccated coconut
125g butter, melted
40g butter, extra
395g can sweetened condensed milk
2 tbsp golden syrup
100g macadamia nuts, toasted, roughly chopped
200g dark chocolate, broken into pieces, or dark chocolate buttons
Method:
Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 28cm x 18cm x 3cm-deep slice pan with baking paper. Combine flour, brown sugar and desiccated coconut in a bowl. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Press mixture into base of prepared cake pan. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden. Cool.
Combine extra butter, condensed milk, golden syrup and macadamia nuts in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until butter has melted and mixture is well combined. Pour over cooled base. Bake for 20 minutes. Cool.
Place chocolate into a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, taking care that base does not touch the water. Stir until smooth. Spread over slice. Stand at room temperature until just set. Cut into squares and serve.
Smart Tip:
You can melt the chocolate by microwaving it in 30-second bursts, stirring well after each time.
