aerintine asked, which was very sensible, because seriously folks, you HAVE NOT LIVED until you have tasted this caramel slice. It is my very favourite thing.

Recipe For Caramel Slice

base:
- 2 packets of Milk Coffee biscuits (by Arnotts)*

Get a deep tray (vaguely 20-by-30cm) and cover the bottom with biscuits. Save the rest of the biscuits for the caramel.

* For you overseas people: we're talking sweet biscuits, very plain, like you'd buy to dunk in coffee. Or possibly for s'mores.


caramel:
- 200 grams of butter
- 2 tins of condensed milk
- 6 tablespoons of brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons of golden syrup
- the rest of the Milk Coffee biscuits (crushed)

Melt the butter, in a saucepan on very low heat.
Add in the condensed milk, sugar, and golden syrup. Keep stirring for ages, until the whole thing caramelises. (You want to keep it going until it's just about to burn.)
Take it off the stove, stir in all the crushed biscuits, and pour the whole thing over the base in the tray.
Put it in the fridge until it's set.


top:
- 120 grams of copha
- 400 grams of dark chocolate

Melt the copha.
Add the chocolate, and wait until it melts too.
Pour the whole thing over the caramel.
Put it back into the fridge until it's set.


Then, cut the whole thing up into little slice-shaped pieces, and enjoy.
