This delicious slice is everyone’s favourite – or so it seems, by how quickly it disappears!

Ingredients

1 cup plain flour, sifted

½ cup brown sugar

½ cup desiccated coconut

125g butter, melted, plus 60g extra

395g can sweetened condensed milk

2 tablespoons maple syrup

200g dark chocolate, chopped

2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Method

  1. Preheat oven to moderate, 180°C. Lightly grease an 18cm x 28cm slice pan. Line base and sides with baking paper.

    Step 1   

  2. In a bowl, combine flour, sugar and coconut. Make a well in centre. Add melted butter and mix well.

    Step @stepIndex

    Step 2   

  3. Press mixture firmly into pan with a fork. Bake 15-20 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool.

  4. Combine extra butter, condensed milk and syrup in a medium saucepan. Stir over low heat until smooth. Pour over base. Bake 15-20 minutes, until golden. Cool. 

    Step @stepIndex

    Step 4   

  5. Place chocolate and oil together in a heatproof bowl. Stir over a saucepan of simmering water 4-5 minutes, until melted and smooth (see tip).

    Step @stepIndex

    Step 5   

  6. Pour chocolate evenly over slice. Chill until set. Cut into squares. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.

    Step @stepIndex

    Step 6   

Tip! 

When melting chocolate, do not allow the bowl to touch the water, as this may cause it to overheat and “cease” (lose its smooth texture). Use a hot, sharp knife to cut the slice into squares.
