3️⃣ press into the dish about 0.5cm – 1cm thick and freeze to harden while you make the caramel.

CARAMEL:
1️⃣ Place caramel ingredients into food processor and blitz until it is a thick, gooey texture. Some small nut & date lumps may remain.
2️⃣ Spread evenly over base and place back in freezer to harden for the choc layer.

CHOC TOPPING:
✳ Either make this right before spreading over caramel or set aside and reheat for 10 seconds right before spreading.

2️⃣ Pour over caramel only once caramel has hardened and while chocolate is still runny.
3️⃣ Place back in fridge or freezer to become firm before slicing.
