Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180C/350F (160C fan-forced)
Step 2
Line pan - Lightly spray a 20cm/8" square pan with oil then press in a sheet of paper (no need to be meticulous here).
Step 3
Melt butter - Place the butter in the pan then melt in the oven for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Biscuit base - Swirl pan to spread butter then sprinkle over crushed biscuits. Spread then gently press down (again, I am not meticulous about evenness here).
Step 5
Layer - Scatter over the coconut, followed by about 2/3 of the peanuts and choc chips (reserve some for the top). Pour over condensed milk, spread for even coverage. Top with remaining nuts and chocolate chips.
Step 6
Bake for 30 minutes or until the edge of the surface is golden brown.
Step 7
Fully cool before cutting (3 hours on counter, or 1 hr counter + 1 hr fridge). Remove using paper overhang then cut and eat!
