AN INDULGENT BLEND OF CHOCOLATE CRUMBLE AND GOOEY CARAMEL

This wonderful slice is easy to make and is a truly delectable blend of yumminess! Serve in small squares as it is sinfully rich!

INGREDIENTS

  • 125gm Butter, melted
  • 2 cups of Caster Sugar
  • 1 cup Plain Flour, sifted
  • 1 cup Self Raising Flour, sifted
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder, sifted
  • 3 Egg Whites
  • 1 can, Nestle Top ‘n’ Fill Caramel
  • 1/2 cup Dessicated Coconut

PREPERATION

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180C
  2. Apply non stick cooking spray to a slice pan (30 x 20cm)
  3. Line the pan with Baking Paper
  4. Combine butter and caster sugar in a large bowl and whisk until pale and creamy
  5. Add flours, cocoa and egg whites, fold together with a spatula. Finish kneeding by hand to bring it together to a smooth dough.
  6. Use the spatula,ย divide the dough intoย half
  7. Place half of the dough into your prepared slice span and using your fingers, press the dough evenly across the base (the dough is a bit sticky, so sprinkle some sugar or flour on to your hands to stop them from sticking)
  8. Add the coconut to the remaining half of the dough
  9. Place the caramel into a small bowl, and mix until smooth
  10. Using a dessert spoon, drop dollops of the caramel randomly over the prepared base
  11. Break off bits of the remaing dough and randomly place on top of the caramel, don’t worry about being neat or perfect as the dough expands whilst cooking and will cover any gaps you have
  12. Bake in the oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the top has a nice firm looking crust
  13. Allow to cool completely in the pan, before cutting into small squares
  14. Store in the refrigerator and it keeps well for at least 3 days (bet it won’t last that long)!
