Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180 deg C. Grease and line a 20 cm x 30 cm baking tin with baking paper.

For the topping:
- Keep the chocolate for melting on a double boiler.
- Using an electric cake beater mix together Dreamwhip powder, milk, caramel powder, and sauce. Beat in melted chocolate and the eggs, mix until well combined. Fold through the nuts. Adding nuts is optional, If you wish you can make the bars without nuts.
- Pour the topping mixture onto the precooked base and return to the oven and bake for 30 minutes, until set. Let the dish cool before cutting into bars.
