CARAMEL FILLING

1. In a small saucepan or pot combine the homemade condensed milk, butter & golden syrup. Stir over a low to medium heat for 6-8 minutes, until mixture boils, thickens and changes to a slightly darker colour - it may catch so take care to stir constantly.
2. Pour the caramel filling over the slice base and spread evenly
3. Sprinkle the remaining slice crumbs evenly over the top of the caramel, then press this down with your palms until even.
4. Bake the slice for 20-25 minutes until golden brown, the slice will firm up upon standing. 5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 15-20 minutes.
6. Gently run a knife around the edges before carefully removing tart tin.
7. To remove the base simply use two wire racks one on top and one underneath to flip the slice and carefully peel off the base then invert back to the right way up using the same method.

TOPPING
1. Melt the chocolate chips in a small microwave proof bowl, 20-30 seconds at a time stirring each time until completely melted.
2. Add the chocolate topping and mix well.
3. Using a spoon, drizzle the chocolate all over the tart.
4. Slice and serve, it is lovely served warm or cold.
