Ingredients
  

Base

  • 4 oz or 110g white chocolate
  • 8 oz or 225g desiccated coconut
  • 3 oz or 75g icing sugar (powdered sugar)
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Caramel

  • 7 oz or 200g condensed milk (approx. half a can)
  • 4 oz or 110g butter
  • 4 oz or 110g sugar
  • 1 tbsp golden syrup (or use honey/maple syrup)
  • 7 oz or 200g condensed milk (approx. half a can)
  • toasted, desiccated coconut

Instructions
 

  • Line a 8″/20cm square tin with parchment paper.
  • Melt the white chocolate and spread over the base of the tin. Put to one side – or into the fridge – to set.
  • Mix together the condensed milk (half a regular sized can – you’ll use the rest for the caramel), vanilla, coconut and icing sugar until well combined. Then spread over the white chocolate base.
  • Combine the rest of the condensed milk with the butter, sugar and golden syrup in a small saucepan. Place over a gentle heat and stir frequently until melted and thickened. It should be a light golden color.
  • Spread the caramel over the coconut base and sprinkle with toasted coconut.
  • Leave to set, then cut into squares.
