Day 11 – about a recipe

Hrmmm.. What kind of Recipe are we talking here? I'm generally good creating a Recipe for Disaster.... Ask anyone and they will totally agree with me here! ☺

But seriously.. I would have to say my fav recipe is the following, which was given to me by a good friend about a year ago, I still cant eat it that often but it makes up for not having my fav caramel cake nowdays...

Gluten-Free Chocolate Caramel Squares.
150g Butter
1/2 Cup Sugar
1tsp Vanilla
1 Egg yolk
1 1/2 Cups Gluten-Free Baking Mix
1/2 Cup Cocoa
395g Can Sweetened Condensed Milk
100g Butter
1/2 Cup Golden syrup

1. Beat butter & sugar until pale & creamy. Add vanilla, egg yolk, GF Baking Mix & cocoa. Mix well!

2. press mix into a slice pan (28cm x 18cm approx) reserve 1/3 of the mixture & refrigerate base till required.

3. place condensed milk, 100g butter, and golden syrup in small saucepan stirring over gentle heat until butter is melted and mix is smooth. Allow to cool.

4. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. spread cool caramel over base and crumble the last of the 1/3 base mix over the top. Bake for 25-30mins until caramel is rich and golden and base is firm.

Cut into slices..
