  • 100g Smooth Peanut Butter
  • pinch salt
  • 3 tbsp cornflour

METHOD

CONDENSED MILK

  1. To make the condensed milk: Combine the milk, cream and the Lakanto Brown Monkfruit Sweetener.
  2. Place over medium heat and bring to boil (do not over boil or it will split). Reduce heat to low, continue reducing liquid until it halves in volume add 100g smooth peanut butter. This will take approx. 20 – 30 minutes.
  3. Add cornflour and salt to taste, and cook for a further 2 minutes. Allow to cool. Cover with cling film and refrigerate.

BISCUIT BASE
  1. To make the base: Preheat oven to 170ºC. Combine flour, oats, sweetener and coconut in a large bowl and stir.
  2. Place Bakers Vanilla Syrup and butter in a small saucepan, stir over low heat until butter has fully melted. Mix bicarb soda with 1 ½ tablespoons water and add to syrup mixture. It will bubble whilst you are stirring together, so remove from the heat.
  3. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix together until fully combined. Press mixture on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper, make the height no higher than 10mm (1cm).
  4. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown and allow to cool. To finish, pour hot condensed milk over biscuit base and bake for 10 minutes, allow to cool until set.

CHOCOLATE TOPPING
  1. To make the chocolate topping: melt the chocolate and coconut oil together in a small saucepan over a medium-low heat, stirring until smooth.
  2. Once the rest of the slice is set, pour the chocolate over the top. Allow to cool in the refrigerator before slicing into 18 pieces and serving.
