Oaty Caramel Squares

Lovely little treats that taste like a flapjack with gooey caramel through them, very naughty but extremely nice!



Recipe
Base:
1 Cup plain flour
1/2 cup Self Raising flour
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
3/4 cup soft brown sugar
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 egg, beaten
150g butter, melted and cooled

Topping:
100g butter
1 can condensed milk
2 tablespoons golden syrup

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
Line a square or rectangular slice tin with non stick baking paper.

Mix all of the dry ingredients for the base together in a large bowl, then stir in the melted butter and egg. The mixture will be moist but crumbly and will hold together if you squeeze it in your hand.

Tip 3/4 of the mixture into the prepared tin and press it flat with your hand.

Put the topping ingredients into a saucepan and cook over a low heat until the butter has melted and everything is mixed together. Pour this over the oaty base then sprinkle the remaining 1/4 of the base mixture over the top. Bake for 30 mins, cool in the tin and chill before cutting into small squares.


The little baby dress is coming along well, I managed to get quite a bit of it done last night and now the hem is in sight.
