    Question yummy slice recipes?

    does anyone have any?

    i had the YUMMIEST slice ever yesterday at a cafe called "macadamia and pecan slice". does anyone have anything similar?

    the base must have been condensed milk, golden syrup, crushed pecans etc and then it had chocolate and the macadamias on top??

    Honey, Pecan and Caramel slice.

    22-24

    Ingredients
    • 2 cups (300g) plain flour
    • 1/2 firmly packed cup (100g) brown sugar
    • 180g chilled unsalted butter, chopped
    Pecan topping
    • 125g unsalted butter
    • 1 firmly packed cup (200g) brown sugar
    • 1/3 cup (4 tbs) honey
    • 1 1/2 tbs pure (thin) cream
    • 250g pecans, sliced lengthways
    • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    Method
    1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 4cm-deep, 21cm x 30cm slice pan with baking paper, allowing the paper to extend slightly over the edges of the longer sides. Whiz the flour, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor for 15 seconds.
    2. Add butter and whiz until mixture resembles damp sand. Tip into pan and pat out evenly over the base. Roll a small glass over the base to smooth it out. Bake base for 20 minutes or until golden. Towards the end of baking time, make the topping. Melt the butter in a heavy-based pan over medium heat. Add sugar, honey, cream and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and stir for 2 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and stir for a further minute. Stir in pecans and vanilla, then remove from the heat and keep warm.
    3. Remove base from the oven and stand for 1-2 minutes, then spread warm pecan mix evenly over the top. Bake for 16-18 minutes or until topping is bubbling and deep golden. Place the pan on a rack to cool completely. Using a hot knife, loosen the edges of the slice and slice in the pan (or lever the whole slab out onto a board and slice). Store the slice, layered between baking paper, in an airtight container - it will keep for up to 5 days in a cool spot (it also freezes well).
    You could also drizzle some melted chocolate over the top if you like?
