Makes approx. 16 pieces.
INGREDIENTS
200g butter, at room temperature
½ cup sugar
1 egg
1 ½ cups plain white flour
1 tbsp cocoa powder
½ cup peanut butter
1 x 395g can Nestle ready-to-use caramel
200g dark chocolate
1 tbsp olive oil
2-3 tbsp peanut butter
METHOD
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the egg, flour, cocoa powder and peanut butter and mix until combined. Spread into a lined baking tin and bake for 15 minutes, or until the slice is just starting to brown around the edges.
- Remove from the oven and carefully spread the tin of caramel evenly over the base. Return to the oven for a further 10 minutes.
- While the slice cools, melt the chocolate and olive oil in a small pot over a low heat. Pour over the caramel layer and then dollop on the peanut butter. Using a toothpick, swirl the peanut butter through the melted chocolate, then allow the whole slice to set fully before cutting. To make cutting through the chocolate easier, pour hot water over a sharp knife first.
