A sweet and gooey bake with crunchy Maltesers to make it extra special.
INGREDIENTS
- 100ml golden syrup
- 150g light soft brown sugar
- 80g unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp double cream
- 140g corn flakes
- 50g Maltesers
TO DECORATE
- 200g white chocolate, broken into small pieces
- 50g Maltesers, some left whole, some lightly crushed
Instructions
-
1 Grease and line a 20cm square baking tin. Warm the golden syrup and sugar in a medium saucepan over a low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until the syrup becomes liquid and the sugar starts to dissolve. Add the butter and continue to stir until it melts, then add the cream and stir together. Continue to mix until everything has melted and is fully combined.

2 Bring to a simmer, then allow to bubble for 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, then add the Corn Flakes with a pinch of salt. Stir to coat in the caramel sauce. Spoon half the mixture into the tin, pushing it down slightly with the back of a spoon. Scatter over some of the Maltesers, then top with the remaining mixture, again pressing down with the spoon to make it nice and compact.

3 Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water until melted (alternatively, melt it in short bursts in the microwave). Pour a thin layer of chocolate over the mixture in the tin, then scatter over the remaining Maltesers. Chill for 2 hours, then bring to room temperature and slice into 16 squares using a hot, dry knife for a smoother finish.
