Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Rolled oats
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 150 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Almond extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 can (395 grams) Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Golden syrup
- 75 grams Unsalted butter (extra)
- 200 grams Milk chocolate (chopped)
- 50 grams Dark chocolate (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Cream
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) square baking tin with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar.
Step 3
Add the melted unsalted butter, almond extract, and honey to the dry ingredients. Stir until evenly combined.
Step 4
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking tin to create the base layer. Use the back of a spoon to smooth out the surface.
Step 5
Bake the base in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until firm and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 6
To prepare the caramel filling, combine the sweetened condensed milk, golden syrup, and extra unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low to medium heat.
Step 7
Stir continuously for about 8-10 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly and turns a golden caramel color.
Step 8
Pour the caramel filling over the cooled oat base and spread it evenly. Return the tin to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the caramel bubbles slightly. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
Step 9
For the chocolate topping, melt the milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and cream together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring frequently to ensure a smooth consistency.
Step 10
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the cooled caramel layer. Tilt the tin gently to spread the chocolate evenly, or use a spatula for a smooth finish.
Step 11
Refrigerate the slice for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate topping is set.
Step 12
Once set, remove the slice from the tin and cut into 12 squares or rectangles using a sharp knife.
Step 13
Enjoy your Slice of Tuscany Oaty Caramel Slice with a cup of coffee or tea for a delightful treat!
