Pecan, Toffee and Oatmeal Dark Chocolate Chunk Bars
(from Aldi Dessert recipes) Makes: 8 large pieces
Ingredients
- 1 cup pecan nuts, split into quarter cup and 3 quarter cups
- ¾ cup salted butter, melted & cooled (or add extra salt if using unsalted)
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup plain flour
- 2 tsp BP
1 cup brown sugar - ½ cup white chocolate melts, melted
- ⅓ cup dark chocolate melts
- Preheat the oven to 160°C FF. Grease and line a 20cm square baking tin.
- Roughly chop pecans, set aside. Place sugar, flour, oats & BP into large mixing bowl. Stir, mix in the melted butter and beaten eggs with wooden spoon.
- Fold in melted white chocolate and ¾ cup chopped pecans and stir to evenly combine.
- Pour into prepared tin, sprinkle with remaining pecans. Bake 30 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from oven and leave to cool slightly for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate. Transfer slice to a cooling rack and spoon over the melted dark chocolate. Allow to cool then cut into 8 pieces.
Note: You can drizzle the chocolate across the top of the slice with a spoon – in a lined pattern or simply pour the chocolate over the top and smooth it with a palette knife.
Tip: For a less sweet version, you can swap the white chocolate for more dark chocolate.
