supercook, I'm not sure if this is the slice you're wanting - this is the recipe as shown on “Good Morning” in 2004 and made by Graham Wilkinson.

APRICOT CHOCOLATE CARAMEL SLICE
Base:
1½ cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ cup brown sugar
125g butter, melted

Combine the dry ingredients, then add the melted butter and mix well. Press the mixture into a baking paper-lined 27cm x 18cm tin.

Filling:
75g butter
¼ cup (85g) golden syrup
1 x 397g can sweetened condensed milk
¼ cup coarsely chopped apricots – or use e.g. dates, dried mango pieces

Place the butter and golden syrup in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, stirring. Remove from heat, stir in the condensed milk and apricots. Pour the filling over the base, then evenly place on top

¼ cup each of Milk Melts and White Melts – 17 or 18 of each

Bake at 180ºC for 30 minutes. Allow to cool and cut into pieces. To decorate, drizzle with melted chocolate.
Makes 24 pieces.

Is very sweet but a real caramel-lovers' temptation. :-))

There are other recipes as well, just do a search in the past year for dried apricots, condensed milk and have a good read. Hopefully you'll find what you're after :)
