Easy Caramel Biscuits Food

CARAMEL SLICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (fan 160°C)
• Grease and line a 28x 18cm (lamington pan) / 7" x 11" rectangle pan with baking/parchment paper (Note 2). Have overhang for ease of removal.
• Mix together Base ingredients and press into a pan (I use an egg flip)
• Bake for 15 minutes until the surface is golden. Cool in fridge if you have time (Note 3).
• Lower oven to oven to 160°C/320°F (fan 140°C)
• Place butter, sugar and vanilla in a saucepan over medium low heat. When the butter is melted, whisk to combine with sugar, then just leave it until it comes to a simmer.
• When bubbles appear, add condensed milk. Whisk constantly for 5 minutes (Note 4), until you start getting some big slow bubbles on the base.
• Once bubbles start appearing, whisk for 1 minute, then pour onto Base. Tilt pan to spread evenly.
• Bake for 12 minutes. Don't worry if you get splotchy brown bits (this happens with ovens that don't distribute heat evenly).
• Cool on counter for 20 minutes then refrigerate 30 minutes - bottom of pan should be warm but surface cool (not cold) to touch. (Note 5)
• Place chocolate and oil in a microwave proof bowl. Microwave in 30 second bursts, stirring in between, until chocolate is fully melted (takes me 4 x 30 sec).
• Pour over caramel, spread with spatula. Then gently shake pan to make the surface completely flat.
• Refrigerate 1 hour or until set. Remove from fridge and leave out for 5 minutes to take chill out of chocolate slightly. Then cut into bars or squares to serve!

CLASSIC CRèME CARAMEL

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven 150C/300F/Gas 2. Warm the ramekins in the oven, so they are warm when the caramel is poured in.
• First make the caramel. Pour the sugar and six tablespoons of water into a clean stainless steel pan.
• Dissolve the sugar slowly, stirring with a wooden spoon over a low heat.
• When there are no sugar granules left, stop stirring and boil until the sugar turns a dark copper colour.
• Remove immediately from the heat to ensure the caramel does not burn. Quickly pour the caramel into the warmed ramekins.
• Set aside to cool and become hard. (Do not put in the fridge because the sugar will absorb moisture and go soft and tacky).
• Once hard, butter the sides of the ramekins above the level of the caramel.
• For the custard, whisk the eggs, vanilla extract and caster sugar together in a bowl until well mixed.
• Pour the milk into a saucepan, gently heat over a low heat until you can still just dip your finger in for a moment, then strain the milk through a fine sieve onto the egg mixture in the bowl.
• Whisk together until smooth, then pour the mixture into the prepared ramekins.
• Stand the ramekins in a roasting tin and fill the tin half-way with boiling water from a kettle.
• Cook in the oven for about 20-30 minutes or until the custard has set. Do not overcook the custard - check around the edges of the dishes, to make sure no bubbles are appearing.
• Take the crème caramels out of the oven, remove the ramekins from the tray and set on a cooling rack. When cool, transfer to the fridge overnight so that the caramel is absorbed into the custard.
• To serve, loosen the sides of the custard by tipping the ramekin and loosen with a small palette knife round the edges. Place a serving dish on top of the ramekin and turn upside down. Serve with pouring cream.
