Ingredients140g light muscovado sugar
100g clear honey
200g salted butter
100g desiccated coconut
140g flaked almonds
300g glacé cherry, sliced
4 tbsp plain flour
250g dark, milk or white chocolate, or a mix
Prep: 30 MINS
Cook: 20 MINS
Method1)Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
Put the sugar, honey and butter in a large pan and gently melt together.
When all the sugar has dissolved stir in the coconut, flaked almonds, sliced cherries and flour.
2)Line a large baking tray with greaseproof paper (about 40 x 30cm), and roughly spread the Florentine mixture out to a thin layer – don’t worry if you have small gaps, it should melt together in the oven.
Bake for 10-12 mins until a rich golden colour, then set aside to cool and firm up.
