Mini Anzac biscuit caramel tarts with chocolate drizzle

These irresistible bite-sized treats combine all the best things: a crunchy, buttery Anzac biscuit base, a rich caramel filling, and a decadent drizzle of chocolate on top.

Even better? They're baked in a muffin tin, making them super simple to whip up and perfect for sharing. Huge thanks to our lovely listener Ange for treating us to a batch (they disappeared fast) and sharing her go-to recipe with us!

Whether you're hosting friends or just craving something sweet, these mini Anzac caramel tarts are guaranteed to hit the spot. Let’s get baking!

Anzac biscuits:

Ingredients:

1 cup standard grade flour
2/3 cup white sugar
1 1/3 cups finely desiccated coconut
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
100g butter
2 Tbsp golden syrup
1 tsp baking soda
4 Tbsp boiling water

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 180˚C.
2. Mix together flour, sugar, coconut, and rolled oats.
3. Melt butter and golden syrup. Dissolve baking soda in the boiling water and add butter and golden syrup. Stir the butter mixture into the dry ingredients.
4. Place spoonfuls of mixture into greased muffin tins. Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden.
5. Once you take them out of the oven, dent a hole in the middle to fill later - Ange used a pestle from a mortar and pestle! Leave on the tray for five minutes then transfer to a wire rack.

Caramel filling:

Ingredients:

400g can sweetened condensed milk
2 TBSP golden syrup
60 grams butter, melted

Method:

1. In a small saucepan or pot combine condensed milk, butter & golden syrup.
2. Stir over low to medium heat for 6-8 minutes, until the mixture boils, thickens and changes to a slightly darker colour - it may catch so take care to stir constantly.

Final Assembling:

1. Spoon the caramel filling into the cooled biscuit cases. Then, you can either eat as is or drizzle some chocolate over the top! 
2. Ange recommends 50% Whitakers dark to counter the sweetness of the caramel! YUM
