[punkbaby]

[bel_aiden]

1/2 packet of ginger nut biscuit and 1/4 pack of scoth finger biscuits, 2 tblspoon metled butter

[Shanaynay]

I didn't watch it but the yummiest caramel slice base ever is 1 cup of coconut, 1 cup of plain flour, 1 cup of brown sugar, and 175g of melted butter. Delicious :chef:

[Bubble*Crazy]

I just watched it (we're a bit behind in WA!) and for those interested the recipe is ...

Easy Peasy Caramel Slice

1) Crush 1/4 packet of ginger nuts and 1/4 packet of scotch finger biscuits and mix with 2T melted butter. Press into lined tin.

2) Pour 3 tins of sweetened condensed milk over the top and cook in 160degree oven for 30-35 minutes and then refrigerate until set. (Don't forget you can buy 98% fat free SCM ;))

3) Top with 250g melted dark (or as suggested white chocolate) and refrigerate until firm (approx 10-15 mins).

4) Cut into bite size pieces with a hot, wet knife and serve.

Too easy!

No worries! It's a bit sweet for me too, but Miss 6 thought it'd be great for her to make some for Ethan's birthday party next week, so we may give it a go.

[Zada]

[SalTheGal]

Spent ages surfing the net trying to find the recipe last night, cause I missed it on the show (just saw the ads)............

Anyone got the magazine already?
The base was 1/2 packet of gingernuts & 1/4 packet of scotch fingers.
My DH even said he'd have a go at this one!

[sugar n spice]

[bel_aiden]

hi ladies, i made it on sunday.

i didnt like the base, too much ginger.. next time id just use scotch finger biscuits. cooked it for 30 mins, and it was bubbling n starten to look fairly dark so i took it out then, and let it cool for maybe half hour, then chuked it in the ridge for few hours.. then topped with chocy.. let set.. viola! it is quite sweet.. but daaa, it is caramel!

good luck and happy baking!

[sugar n spice]

mine is in the fridge not that the caramel looks too good. definetly caramalised. will do the chocolate soon

[poshBecks]

has anyone made the caramel slice yet? I want to know if its nice or not.
WE did.

Yes I made it and it was a disaster!!! I followed the receipe off this thread and it didnt work:(
Same with us.

My condensed milk didnt turn into caramel?? How did you mum do it Melo??

I think we should have cooked in the oven for longer. We will try that next time. It tastes better frozen.

[sugar n spice]

well its done. very sweet and i only used two sml cans but came out pretty good. i should have let it set a little longer before cutting it though

[Proudofmy3Babies]

well its done. very sweet and i only used two sml cans but came out pretty good. i should have let it set a little longer before cutting it though

Im so glad yours worked out!!!

What have I done wrong do you think??? How long did you bake and at what temp??

Mel

[sugar n spice]

i only used 2 sml cans as i thought it would be too sweet with three cans. i baked in the oven at 160Degrees for about 20mins as by then it was really bubbling. took it out, put in the fridge for about 1/2 hr then melted chocolate over the top. not sure why yours didnt turn out

[Melo]

My condensed milk didnt turn into caramel?? How did you mum do it Melo??

I dont know? I just ate it! :o :D :thumbsup:

[Proudofmy3Babies]

[Melo]

[sugar n spice]

ITS super dooper yummy:p

[sugar n spice]

my oven is fan forced

[Missty]

Does anyone have the receipe for the chocolate cake they did which doesnt get baked - it sets in the fridge?

[Proudofmy3Babies]

Mine didnt work out either!
It all bubbled and burned on the top, and it was only on 140d! Does anyone have a fan forced oven? Would it have something to do with that?
Im so mad!

I have a fan forced oven!! Mine didnt work either!!
