This classic chocolate caramel slice is an old fashioned favourite.  Smooth caramel filling sandwiched between a layer of chocolate and biscuit base.

Hi Katrina – can you freeze the Chocolate Caramel Slice that you make? I am not a baker.

I think I read somewhere that this slice can be frozen. If so how long can it freeze for?

Hi Cathy, yes you can freeze it. It should be right for a month or so.

Sorry Kat, but Ali Hammo’s Ohhh Emmm Gee I Love, caramel slice recipe using a Thermomix is the only one I will ever make. Turns out perfect every time and has a thick layer of caramel in the centre.

Very yummy but next time I think I’ll make it in a slice tray so it’s thicker.
