Caramel Slice recipe

This is one of my favourite recipes. It was passed on to me by a friend and now I am passing it on to you. I hope you enjoy making and eating this caramel slice. 

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2/3 cup of dessicated coconut
• 2/3 cup of self raising flour
• 85g of melted unsalted butter (For the base)
• 1 can of condensed milk (395g)
• 30g of butter for caramel filling
• 2 Tablespoons of golden syrup
• 150g of chocolate (dark or milk)

160 degrees for fan forced oven

1. Mix brown sugar, coconut and flour in large bowl.
2. Stir in the melted butter making sure all the dry ingredients are absorbed by the butter.
3. Using a 20cm slice pan lined with baking paper, press the mixture into the bottom forming a base in the pan.
4. Place base in oven for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
5. Let the base cool for 10 minutes before starting on the next step.
6. In a saucepan over medium heat melt the better and golden syrup together.
7. When butter and golden syrup is well blended add the can of condensed milk stirring continuously for 7-10 minutes. You will notice the caramel thickening after about 8 minutes.
8. After caramel thickens, pour over the cooked base spreading the mixture over evenly.
9. Put pan back into the oven and cook for a further 10-12 minutes until the caramel is bubbling and the border is slightly raised.
10. Let the caramel and base cool completely before starting the next step.
11. Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pot of boiling water or in the microwave and pour over the cooled caramel layer ensuring that the chocolate layer is even.
12. Place slice into the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
13. When the slice is set, cut into squares and enjoy.

The slice is good for 4 days after cooking, if they even last that long ;)

Keep slice squares in an airtight container in the fridge.

Enjoy :)
