Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius (320 degrees Fahrenheit).
-
Grease and line a 19 cm x 28 cm x 2 cm baking tray with parchment paper, ensuring there’s some overhang for easy removal later.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain flour and icing sugar. Add the butter and rub it in until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
-
Add the egg yolk to the mixture and mix until well combined.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it until it comes together.
-
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking tray, ensuring it covers the base evenly. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the base is golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 145 degrees Celsius (293 degrees Fahrenheit).
-
Pour half of the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the warm base.
-
Sprinkle the coconut, nuts, and chocolate chips over the condensed milk layer.
-
Pour the remaining sweetened condensed milk over the top, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
-
Return the tray to the oven and bake for an additional 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and set.
-
Remove from the oven and allow the slice to cool completely in the tray for about 2 hours.
-
Once cooled, lift the slice out of the tray using the parchment paper overhang and transfer it to a cutting board.
-
Cut into squares using a sharp knife, wiping it clean between cuts for neat edges.
-
