Tracy says
I made this today and I had seen someone’s previous comment about whether you could make it gluten free. I have a coeliac son so I am always playing around with recipes to make them gluten free. I used 50gms almond meal, 100 plain gluten free flour. Added a heaped teaspoon of baking powder and heaped teaspoon of xanthum gum. All other ingredients the same. (I used salted macadamias and almonds.) Worked out perfectly. Both coeliac and non coeliac family members gave it the thumbs up
Lucy says
Fantastic!
Lauren says
How long will this recipe last in the fridge?
Emma says
Can you use salted nuts for a salted caramel taste??
Katherine says
I want to make this for our weekly morning tea at work. Can I use gluten free Self Raising Flour instead. I'm not very familiar with gluten intolerances - we just have a couple of staff who I don't want to feel left out.
Lucy says
Hi Katherine, I personally haven't made a gluten-free version of this slice so couldnt guarantee you on whether gluten-free self raising flour would work sorry! But I'll leave your comment here in case someone else has done so successfully!
Kira-lee Rixon says
OMG this is the sweetest and most addictive slice ever!

Lucy says
Yay! So glad you liked it!
Ann Simpson says
Easiest, yummiest, quickest to disappear if accidentally left out in the bench....
Claire says
How is this to freeze?
Lucy says
I haven't frozen this myself! Maybe someone else can help?
Emma says
I forgot to do the white chocolate chip
Will it matter?
Lucy says
Hahaha it should be fine!
Anna says
I made it with walnuts (for some bitterness) and drizzled with dark chocolate (instead of White choc chips). Hands down one of the best slices I've ever made. Thank you.
Lauren says
That's excellent, so glad you like it!
Millie says
OMG! It's very sweet & very addictive!!! Love it! I used whatever nuts I had on hand; macadamias, pistachios, almond slivers, cashews & walnuts. & I made my own condensed milk for the first time 🙂
Lauren says
So glad you enjoyed it!
Giselle says
Omg I love this slice.. so gonna make it tomorrow
Louise says
I'm trying to avoid refined sugar so I'm using rice malt syrup, maple syrup, rapadura sugar, or coconut sugar. What do you think would be the best replacement for the castor sugar in this recipe?
