15 mins was a bit long in the microwave taking it up to 130 degrees. Will try again at some stage for less time.

You need a very big bowl or the mixture boils over in the microwave. Time to cook was less for me. More powerful microwave may make the difference.

I made 2 lots, first lot was golden brown with a bit of a crunch and it really needed to be put into a larger container in the microwave as i had to keep stopping it because it was going over the sides, the second batch was a lighter colour closer to cream, it was beautiful, melts in your mouth, either way it was lovely, thanks
