Nici Wickes: Anzac Slice

I love an Anzac biscuit so much and this slice combines all the flavours of them with another Kiwi favourite, condensed milk! Thanks to Ripe Deli in Grey Lynn for the inspiration for this.   Makes 20-24 pieces     Ingredients  Base   1½ cups rolled oats   ¾ cups coconut   ¾ cups plain flour   ¼ cup sesame seeds   1½ tsp baking powder   Pinch baking soda   150g butter   ¾ cups brown sugar   2 tbsp. golden syrup   Topping   1 x 395g sweetened condensed milk   ½ cup brown sugar   100g butter   3 tbsp. golden syrup   1/3 cup walnut pieces     Method  Preheat your oven to 180C. Line a swiss roll tin with baking paper.   Mix the dry ingredients of the base in a large bowl. Melt the butter, sugar, and golden syrup, and add to the dry ingredients. Mix well to combine.   With wet hands, press all but half a cup of the mix into the tray in an even layer. Bake for 15 minutes.   Make the topping while the base cooks. Heat all the ingredients except the walnuts in a saucepan and stir while it bubbles for about 10 minutes.   Pour over the cooked base, sprinkle over the walnuts and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until top is browned and caramelised around the edges.   Cool completely before slicing.    LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
