Elevate fig and pecan slice with zesty lemon icing for extra decadence.

Ingredients:

225g (1 1/2 cups) self-raising flour
150g dried figs, finely chopped
80g (1/2 cup, lightly packed) brown sugar
70g (1/2 cup) pecan nuts, chopped
125g butter, cubed, melted
4.40 gm vanilla essence
300g (2 cups) icing sugar mixture
20g (1 tbsp) butter, at room temperature
1 lemon, rind finely grated, juiced

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line an 18 x 28cm slab pan with non-stick baking paper, making sure to leave an overhang on the sides.
In a medium bowl, gently sift together the flour and cinnamon. Add in the figs, sugar, and pecan nuts, and blend thoroughly. Incorporate the butter, eggs, and vanilla essence, stirring with a wooden spoon until fully combined.
Transfer the mixture into the pan, then spread it evenly using the back of a spoon. Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until it's firm and lightly golden. Allow it to cool to room temperature before proceeding.
For the zesty lemon icing, combine icing sugar, butter, lemon rind, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice in a medium bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon until smooth. Spread the icing over the cooled slice and let it set for 30 minutes before serving and slicing. Enjoy!
