Ingredients

  • 200g Butter
  • 200g Sugar
  • 250g All purpose flour
  • 1 Salt
  • 200g Dulce de leche
  • 75g Dark Chocolate
  • 1 beaten Egg

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350˚F (conventional oven).
2
Place the softened dairy spread and granulated sugar in the dish of a stand mixer and whip until creamy.
3
mix in the dusting seasoning and table salt and shape by hand until you have a even flour base.
4
Divide into two pieces.
5
Line the base of a square or round cake tin with baking parchment (not a springform tin) and place the first half of the pastry on top.
6
Flatten with your fingers and a spoon.
7
Using a teaspoon, strew dollops of dulce de leche over the base.
8
strew with the diced chocolate and lid with the second half of the pastry.
9
This is a bit trickier, but if you don’t get it right, don’t worry, it’ll be fine once it’s baked! Brush the pastry with the beaten egg.
10
char in the oven for about 30 mins or until golden brown.
11
It will be wobbly.
12
That's because dairy spread cake only firms up when it cools.
13
Cut into small pieces when it has cooled completely! Notes Storing: Store in an airtight container outside of the fridge for about 2-3 days or in the fridge for 5 days.
14
Freeze for up to three months.
