Method

Preheat oven to 160°C fan-forced (180°C conventional).
Grease and line a 20 cm x 30 cm slice pan with baking paper (make sure excess comes up the sides so it’s easier to remove).
Combine the flour, coconut, 125 g of the melted butter, brown sugar and vanilla in a bowl.
Add to the prepared pan the press down using a spoon to leave you with a compact even layer.
Bake for 25 minutes or until golden then remove from the oven.
Combine the condensed milk, remaining 125 g melted butter, the golden syrup and 2 teaspoon salt.
Pour over the biscuit base then bake for 30 minutes or until lightly golden.
Remove and cool completely.
Combine the chocolate and oil then pour over the cooled caramel and level out.
Then chill for at least 30 minutes until set.
Slice into squares using a hot sharp knife.
Enjoy with tea, coffee or even a thick shake - it’s your life, so go for gold!
