I got the recipe for this slice recipe from my little and friday cookbook. I had to make half quantity as I only had 1 tin of condensed milk (thats why its quite flat) but if you made the full quantity it would be double the height!
Base
175g butter, softened
2 cups icing sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 1/2 cups plain flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
Caramel
2 tins condensed milk
200ml golden syrup
100g butter
1/3 cup castor sugar
Cream the butter, sugar and vanilla together until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until combined. Sift in the flour, cocoa and salt and mix until combined. Press into a greased and lined slice tin and bake for 10-15 minutes. Meanwhile make the caramel. Place all the ingredients in a saucepan and stir over a medium heat until everything is melted. Pour over cooked base and return to the oven for another 15 minutes or until golden and set. Leave to cool. Once cool, sprinkle the castor sugar over evenly and use a blow torch to caramelize the sugar on top. Cut into slices.
If you dont have a blow torch, you can place the slice sprinkled with the sugar under a grill for about 4 to 5 minutes which will also caramelize the sugar.
Hey this looks beautiful and is an awesome twist on the Little and Friday recipe! I was wondering how difficult it is to cut them into slices once the brulee part has been done? Would it be do-able to cut the slices first and then individually brulee them? Thanks! :-)
ReplyDeleteits really easy to cut them actually cause the brulee doesnt end up being to crunchy it more just gives that burt toffee flavour!! and i haven't tried but yeah i guess you could!! x
