Equipment

  • Rectangular lamington tray 28cm x 19 cm (I got mine from Kmart)

Ingredients
  

Base

  • 1 cup plain flour sifted
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut
  • 125 grams unsalted butter melted

Caramel

  • 1 tin condensed milk 395 grams
  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup
  • 60 grams unsalted butter

Topping

  • 130 grams milk chocolate
  • 50 grams copha or you can use coconut oil

Instructions
 

Base

  • Preheat oven to 180°c and line a lamington tray with baking paper. I spray a little oil on the tray to hold the paper in place.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, coconut, brown sugar and melted butter in a bowl.
  • Tip the mix into the pan and using the back of a spoon push it down firmly. You can wet the back of the spoon if needed to help spread it out.
  • Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until light golden.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool while you make the caramel.

Caramel

  • Add the caramel ingredients to a saucepan on a medium heat cook for 8–10 minutes whisking regularly so it doesn’t burn.
  • If you start to see little burnt bits, turn the heat down.
  • Tip the caramel over the base and place back in the oven for 12 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Chocolate

  • Melt the chocolate and copha together in a saucepan on a low heat.
  • Once melted, tip over the caramel base and place the tray in the fridge for 3–4 hours to set.
  • Once set, remove from the fridge and slice.
  • This caramel slice can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 7 days and fin the freezer for 3 months.

Notes

You need to firmly push the biscuit base down in the pan and make sure it's spread out. You can wet the back of the spoon if need be to make sure it's firm.
