Steps:
- Be still my beating heart! Or perhaps this is not the best thing to say here, given the likelihood of this lusciously over-the-top piece of chocolate excess inducing just such an outcome. I wouldn't want to make this very often, so impossible is it to walk away from with any conviction. I fear it is the kitchen equivalent to crack cocaine.
- Still, as the French say "Everything in moderation, even moderation." This is gloriously intemperate, riotously vulgar. I love it.
- The key is the blaring balance between sweet and salty: it's like several klaxons going off in your head as you eat. And it's strange that while I would normally eschew an all-milk chocolate offering, I prefer it here to the bittersweet-and-milk mixed version. Not that either is bad, and since the jury is matched on this, I feel it only right to alert you to either option. For what it's worth, I like the darker version in the round pan and cut into panforte-type skinny wedges, and my preferred milk chocolate version set in a rectangular pan and cut into chunky, squat slabs (rather as I feel and look like after eating too many of them).
- Line your springform pan with aluminum foil or use a foil pan.
- Break up or chop the chocolate into pieces, and drop into a heavy-based saucepan. Add the butter and syrup, put on a low heat, and melt gently together.
- Tip the peanuts into a bowl, and crush the honeycomb candy with your hands, letting the golden-glinting rubble fall into the nuts.
- Take the melted chocolate mixture off the heat and stir in the peanuts and crushed honeycomb candy, then tip straight into the springform pan or foil pan. Smooth the top of the mixture as much as you can, pressing down with a silicon spatula or vinyl-disposable-gloved hand. Put into the refrigerator for about 4 hours, and once set, cut into slices as desired.
- Make Ahead Note: The bars can be made 1 day ahead. Transfer slices to airtight container, layered with parchment paper, and store in refrigerator. Keeps for 3 to 4 days.
BUTTERSCOTCH NUT SLICE
Chewy butterscotch and crunchy nuts are a winning combination. It is hard to stop at one. We prefer them warm with ice-cream, or straight out of the freezer! Preparation time does not include resting pastry in the fridge for 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350 deg F.
- Grease an 8 x 12 x 2 slab pan with butter, then line with non-stick baking paper.
- In a medium sized bowl, beat the sugar and butter together with an electric beater for 3 to 4 minutes, or until creamy in texture and color.
- Next, add the egg and beat until well combined.
- Sift the plain flour, self-rising flour and salt together over the butter mixture.
- Working quickly, use your hands to bring the ingredients together to form a ball.
- Dont worry if it is still a bit crumbly.
- Place pastry in the prepared pan and press out to cover the base.
- This can be done, easily, by rolling over the pastry with a thick glass, and then using your fingers to maneuver the pastry into the corners and to the edges of the pan.
- Prick the pastry all over with a fork, cover with plastic wrap and rest in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Bake pastry in oven for 12 minutes, or until firm and a light golden color.
- Put to one side and leave to cool.
- Cut macadamia nuts in half, and roughly chop Brazil nuts to a comparable size.
- Place the brown sugar and butter in a medium sized saucepan and cook, stirring, until butter melts and the mixture comes to the boil.
- Remove from heat and stir in cream and flour.
- Mix with a hand-held whisk until smooth.
- Add nuts and stir in well.
- Return pan to medium heat and stir until mixture comes to the boil.
- Pour butterscotch nut mixture over cooled pastry base, and smooth the surface to cover base evenly.
- Bake in the pre-heated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until topping is bubbling and becoming dark around the edges.
- The mixture starts bubbling fairly soon after placing in oven dont worry, but check frequently to ensure edges are not burning.
- Cool in pan.
- Turn out onto a board, remove paper and cut into fingers or square pieces.
- Serve warm with ice-cream, or cool with tea or coffee.
- Can be stored in a container in the freezer.
