Caramel Slice in your Thermomix

Caramel Slice in your Thermomix

A wickedly rich treat that is almost too good to share – lucky this recipe makes a lot! Wrap individual serves in cling film and freeze for super easy lunchbox and on-the-go treats. Simply pack the frozen slice in the morning and by lunchtime it will be defrosted and ready to enjoy (without risk of melting)! Same goes for afternoon tea – simply pull a couple of pieces out at lunch time and defrost on the bench.
