Spread the love

Ingredients for 35 servings:

  • 125 g butter, soft
  • 125 g brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla sugar
  • 200 g flour
  • 450 g condensed milk, sweetened
  • 30 g butter
  • ½ tsp vanilla sugar
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 50 g sugar
  • 160 g peanuts (unroasted, unsalted, chopped)
  • 180 g dark chocolate

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

For the pastry, cream the butter with the sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy, then add the flour and spread it thinly on about one-third of the greased baking sheet. Bake at 180°C for about 12 minutes. For the topping, put all the ingredients except the nuts in a saucepan and heat gently, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (be careful, it sticks a little!). Stir in half the nuts, spread it on the pre-baked base and secure it with a strip of greased aluminum foil to prevent it from running out. Bake at 180°C for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Immediately spread the coarsely grated chocolate on the hot cake. Once it has melted, spread it out and sprinkle with the remaining nuts. Cut into bars or squares while still warm.
