Posted 2015-08-10 by finyfollow

This is a delicious slice which is crunchy on the outside and sticky/chewy on the inside.

Filled with flaked almonds mixed with white chocolate bits, it is difficult to stop eating these, and this recipe makes quite a lot to indulge in!

Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 45 minutes
Makes: About 35 pieces

Ingredients
300 g caster sugar
160 g unsalted butter
45 g coconut, or brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla essence
2 cups self raising flour
150 g flaked almonds
150 g white chocolate pieces
Icing sugar, for dusting

Method
  • Preheat the oven to 155° fan forced, and put baking paper on a 30 x 20 cm shallow baking tin. Bring the paper up the long sides as this will enable you to lift out the slice when cooked.

  • Put the butter, caster sugar and brown sugar into a saucepan and heat slowly, stirring until the sugar melts. Allow to cool.


  • Put the eggs in an electric beater, and beat till they are pale.

  • Add the vanilla essence, flour and cooled butter and mix.


  • Stir in the white chocolate.


  • Add a bit more than HALF of the almonds.

  • Spread this mixture into the prepared cake tin and put the remaining almonds on top.


  • Bake for 40 minutes or until it starts to brown. The inside will be soft and chewy!

  • Leave to cool in the tin, lift out carefully with the paper, and trim the edges off.

  • Dust with icing sugar and slice into pieces.


  • Serve with cream as a dessert, or eat anytime as is - very moreish.


  • Store in the fridge.
