Ingredients
- 225g Billington's Unrefined Golden Caster Sugar
- 225g unsalted butter, softened
- 250g plain white flour
- 4 tbsp golden syrup
- 1 (397ml) tin condensed milk
- 300g dark chocolate, chopped
- ¼ tsp flaky sea salt
Method
Step 1
Line a 20cm x 23cm tin with baking paper, making sure the paper overhangs slightly so it makes it easier to remove the finished dish.
Step 2
For the shortbread layer, put 50g sugar, 50g butter and flour into a food processor. Whizz until a soft dough forms then spoon into the prepared tin and press lightly to form a smooth, even base. Chill for 20 mins. Meanwhile, heat the oven to 160°C/140°C fan/ gas 3.
Step 3
Remove the shortbread from the fridge and bake for 35 mins, until just golden then set aside to cool fully.
Step 4
Meanwhile, make the caramel. Put the remaining butter and sugar, syrup and the condensed milk into a pan set over a low heat until the butter has melted.
Step 5
Gently stir and allow the mixture to bubble for 5-8 mins, until the mix turns thick and fudge-y. Pour over the cooled shortbread and carefully spread to smooth. Set aside to cool.
Step 6
Once the caramel has cooled, tip the chocolate into a heatproof bowl and set over a pan of barely simmering water, making sure the water doesn’t touch the bowl. Stir the chocolate until melted and spread evenly over the caramel and allow to set.
Step 7
Once set, remove from the tin, using the paper to help, and cut into little squares and sprinkle with a little flaky sea salt to serve.
