Caramel Sultana Slice

Guest blogger Anne from Domesblissity

This has to be one of my all time favourite slices that can be whipped up in no time. I love baking and, traditionally, like nothing better than beating butter and sugar etc etc but who has the time? I love a melt and mix slice that’s mixed up in next to no time at all, thrown in the oven and cooked within 20 minutes. I hope you give this one a go. The kids will love it. It’s great for lunch boxes and morning and afternoon tea. The Mums will also love it at your next play date or playgroup morning tea.
