  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 16 squares 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • For the base:

    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • For the caramel:

    • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
    • 2 tablespoons golden syrup
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter

  • For the chocolate topping:

    • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
    • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Create the Base: Mix flour, coconut, brown sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan.
  3. Bake the Base: Cook the base for 15 minutes, then let it cool slightly.
  4. Make the Caramel: In a saucepan, combine condensed milk, golden syrup, and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thick and caramel-colored, about 10-15 minutes. Pour over the base.
  5. Bake with Caramel: Return to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the caramel sets.
  6. Prepare the Chocolate Topping: Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together, using a microwave or double boiler. Spread the melted chocolate over the set caramel.
  7. Chill and Set: Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm, about 2 hours. Cut into squares.
  8. Enjoy Your Dessert: Serve the slices once the chocolate is set, and enjoy the layered delight.
