Ingredients
- 3/4 cup peanut butter
- 2 1/2 cup soft brown sugar
- 180 gram butter, melted
- 3 free-range eggs
- 3 cup flour
- 1 heaped tsp baking powder
- 400 gram white chocolate buttons
- 3 cup popped corn, plus extra for topping (I used Kettle Korn in support of Eat My Lunch)
- 1 cup salted roasted peanuts
- good-quality caramel sauce, to serve
Method
- 1Preheat oven to 180°C fanbake. Grease and line a 30cm x 40cm slice tray with baking paper.
- 2In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, brown sugar and melted butter with a wooden spoon.
- 3Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the flour and baking powder until just incorporated. Add the white chocolate buttons, popcorn and peanuts, stirring to combine evenly.
- 4Spread mixture into the lined tray, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon. Press extra popcorn into the surface if desired. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until lightly golden.
- 5Drizzle caramel sauce in a zig-zag pattern over the top then leave in the tin to cool completely before cutting into small squares.
