Ingredients
Topping
- 6 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
Caramel
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
Shortbread Crust
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup butter, cut into small pieces
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square pan.
Step 2
Sift flour into a bowl. Rub in butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine bread crumbs. Mix in brown sugar and shape dough into a ball.
Step 3
Press dough into the prepared pan. Prick all over with a fork.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
Step 5
Meanwhile, combine condensed milk, butter, and brown sugar in a nonstick saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until caramel comes to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until golden and pulling away from the sides of the pan, 4 to 5 minutes.
Step 6
Pour caramel over cooled crust and refrigerate until firm to the touch, about 1 hour.
Step 7
Place chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
Step 8
Spread melted chocolate over cooled caramel. Refrigerate until chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes. Cut into bars.
Recipe Tip
Make sure each layer is cooled sufficiently so it doesn't blend with the next layer. When you cut into the bars, you should see the base, middle, and topping clearly.
