Tan Finger Slice
This slice is quick and inexspensive to make. Its a longtime favourite of mine and has a a lovely buttery, almost shortbread texture on the base. The filling is like caramel..mmmm, need I say more :0)
Base:
175 grams butter (softened)
2 1/4 Cups plain flour
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/2 Cup sugar
Cream butter, sugar and vailla until light and fluffy. Add flour and mix well, until all is crumbly.
Filling:
1/2 Can of condensed milk
1 1.2 Tablespoons of golden syrup
50 grams butter
In a saucepan over a low heat melt the filling ingredients and stir until combines. Set aside.
Line a square pan with baking paper. Press 3/4 of the base into the pan. Pour over the filling and spread out evenly. Crumble the remaining base mixture evenly over the top.
Bake at 170 Celcius for 20 minutes in the middle of the oven. Cool and slice when cold.
