Caramel Slice

"A yummy slice that is great for morning teas and entertaining, plus it looks pretty impressive as well! For ease of cutting when the slice has set, I recommend cutting grooves in the chocolate whilst it is soft, and proceeding to cut with a hot knife when ready to cut, otherwise you'll find (as I did!) that the chocolate tends to crack everywhere...not that it affects the taste! I find a mixture of milk and dark chocolate tastes best for the topping, but you can use one or the other to suit your tastes."

directions

  • Preheat oven to 180°C.
  • For the base, combine the flours, coconut, sugar and butter in a large bowl until all the ingredients are wet, and sticking together. Press into a lined slice tin (about 20x30cm).
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Allow to cool slightly.
  • To make the caramel, place the condensed milk, butter and golden syrup in a small saucepan and whisk over a gentle heat until simmering. Continue simmering until the mixture is golden brown and thickened somewhat (this takes about 8 minutes).
  • Allow the caramel to cool slightly before pouring over the base and spreading evenly.
  • To make the topping, place the chocolate and oil in a small, heatproof glass bowl and stand over a pot of simmering water (ensuring that the bottom of the bowl does not make contact with the water). Stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Spread the chocolate evenly over the caramel. Place in the fridge until firm. Cut into squares, rectangles or triaangles!

Ofcourse this photo isn't actually me, but it's a pic i came across one day and just loved it! Moving on... I'm an Aussie girl and i absolutely love living here (in the food sense lol!) because it's so easy to access foods from all sorts of cultures and it's all so easily accessible! I work in a cafe which is quite fitting, and it's great because i'm around food all the time (and it's free...!). I do a heck of a lot of dancing and am about to enter year 12 (argh, exams and hard work!) so i do a lot of cooking as a way of relaxing. Also a bit of a healthy nut, and i don't tolerate dairy too well, so i'm always looking out for ways to make a recipe healthier and how to make it without dairy! I still enjoy cooking with everything (even if i don't eat it!) and most of the time it's passed onto the rest of the family (who are definitely happy with me doing the cooking fairly regularly!) <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
