Method

  1. 1

    Prepare. Set the oven to 175 °C (155 °C fan) and line the large tin with a paper sling.

  2. 2

    Dough. Mix the oats, flour, sugar, almonds, bicarbonate of soda and 1 tsp salt. Whisk the melted butter, eggs and vanilla, then stir into the dry mix to a dough. Keep back about a quarter (roughly 330 g) and press the rest into the tin.

  3. 3

    Fudge. Microwave the chocolate chips, condensed milk, remaining salt and 30 g butter on half power for 2-3 min, stirring often, until smooth and thick.

  4. 4

    Layer. Spread the fudge over the base and crumble the reserved dough over the top.

  5. 5

    Bake. Bake about 30 min, until the topping is golden brown.

  6. 6

    Set. Leave in the tin about 6 h until fully set, then cut into 24.

Store airtight at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
