Conga Bars

While watching Huey's Kitchen last week, he made these Conga Bars .  I thought they looked rather easy to make & my hubby is a big fan of slices etc, I thought I would give it a go.  The mixture was quite runny, but it cooked up nicely.  The chocolate settles to the bottom of the slice, making the nice layered look.  They taste pretty good & will make again.


And here is the recipe

Conga Bars 

Ingredients
225 gm brown sugar
4 large eggs
250 gm unsalted butter, melted
2 tbsp vanilla essence
a pinch of salt
150 gm self-raising flour, sifted
300 gm good quality dark cooking chocolate, chopped
cooking oil spray


Method
1.   Preheat oven to 180°C fan forced (200°C normal).
2.   Beat the sugar and eggs in a large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth.
3.   Then add the melted butter, vanilla, salt and flour, continually mixing.
4.   Add the chocolate and fold in with a wooden spoon. Then transfer the mixture to a lightly oiled slice tin,     smooth the top and give it a bang on the workbench (to remove any air bubbles). Cook in the oven for about 20-30 mins until just set, but still a little soft in the centre.
5.   When ready, set aside to cool before slicing into bars.
