Tips:
- To make the base, use a food processor to combine the oats, flour, sugar, and salt until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Then, add the butter and pulse until the mixture comes together and forms a ball.
- Press the base mixture into a lined 8x8 inch baking pan. Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to evenly distribute the mixture and press it down firmly.
- For the caramel layer, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to combine the butter, brown sugar, and golden syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened and turned a deep amber color.
- Pour the caramel mixture over the base and spread it out evenly. Allow to cool completely.
- For the chocolate layer, melt the chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the caramel layer and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts or Mars Bar pieces, if desired.
- Allow the slice to set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- When ready to serve, cut the slice into bars and enjoy!
